VAUXHALL CORSA2017 · 1.4L PETROL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT in September 2025 at 51,957 miles with no defects recorded. This indicates an improving trend in maintenance following a period of neglect in late 2023. While the 2023 failure highlighted multiple issues, the subsequent clean tests suggest the current owner has addressed the immediate mechanical concerns and maintained the vehicle effectively over the last year. At approximately nine years old, the recorded mileage of 51,957 miles represents a low average of roughly 5,773 miles per year. This low-usage pattern is consistent across the records, showing a gap of 5,391 miles between the 2024 and 2025 tests, and 5,596 miles between the 2023 and 2024 tests. However, low annual mileage can sometimes lead to rubber degradation and dry seals, which aligns with the tyre-related issues noted in the history. A buyer should perform a close physical inspection of the tyres, as the record shows a recurring pattern of damage and wear. The 2022 test noted a cut on the offside rear tyre, which escalated into a failure in 2023 due to a cut reaching the cords on the nearside rear. The 2024 test also flagged a nearside front tyre worn to the limit and on the edge. Check for sidewall cracking or bulging, as the low mileage suggests the vehicle may have sat for extended periods. The suspension and braking system also require scrutiny. The 2024 test identified a damaged offside front track rod end ball joint dust cover, and the 2023 failure resulted from thin front brake pads and pitted discs. While these appear to have been rectified given the subsequent passes, the buyer should check for any play in the steering linkage and ensure the front discs are free of heavy scoring or rust. No structural corrosion or significant emissions issues appear in the history, which is a positive sign for a vehicle of this age.
