2014 VAUXHALL AMPERA1.4L Hybrid Electric (Clean)

The vehicle demonstrates stable roadworthiness with no defects recorded in its last three MOT tests, including the most recent 2025-04-07 assessment at 48,481 miles. The 2022-04-05 failure at 37,064 miles was noted without specific defects, suggesting a procedural or minor technical issue unrelated to safety. No recurring mechanical faults or structural concerns are evident in the documented history, indicating consistent maintenance adherence. The mileage of 48,481 miles over 12 years equates to approximately 4,040 miles annually, significantly below average for the model. This low usage could imply infrequent operation or prolonged periods of inactivity, which may affect components like rubber seals, battery health, and corrosion resistance. Notably, the 2023-03-07 test at 39,912 miles and 2024-03-21 test at 43,929 miles show no gaps exceeding 12 months, reflecting regular compliance with legal testing requirements. However, the absence of detailed defect reports limits insight into potential wear on consumables or hidden deterioration. A buyer should prioritize inspecting the vehicle’s underbody for corrosion, particularly if it has been stored in damp conditions, and verify the condition of suspension components, which may degrade without regular use. The brake system, exhaust, and steering linkage should also be scrutinized, as low-mileage vehicles can develop stiffness or rust in these areas. While the MOT record shows no critical failures, the lack of detailed technical findings means a physical inspection is essential to confirm the car’s overall mechanical integrity.
