2014 Vauxhall Corsa 1.2L Petrol · AF14 DDU

The Vauxhall Corsa presents as roadworthy following the most recent test on 11 March 2026 at 29,987 miles, where the tester recorded no defects and issued a pass. The maintenance trend across the available history is stable, with every annual examination from March 2023 through March 2026 resulting in a clean pass aside from a failed attempt on 10 March 2026 at 29,980 miles that listed no defects, immediately cleared by the pass one day later. No advisories for corrosion, suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions appear at any point, indicating the vehicle has not shown worsening mechanical condition over the four-year record. The odometer shows 24,831 miles at the 8 March 2023 test, rising to 26,365 miles in March 2024, 28,207 miles in March 2025, and 29,987 miles by March 2026. That equates to roughly 1,700 to 1,800 miles added per year, well below the norm for a twelve-year-old 2014 hatchback and confirming very light use. The sparse, clean record gives little basis to suspect neglected consumables, though the low annual distance suggests the car may have stood unused for extended periods between short trips. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody condition, since MOT passes with no advisories do not rule out early surface rust on sills or subframes that a tester need not record. The brake calipers, coil springs, and suspension arms should be checked for stiffness or cracking linked to prolonged standing rather than high-mileage wear. Tyres and wiper blades will need visual confirmation despite no recorded faults. The unexplained fail on 10 March 2026 with zero defects points to a possible administrative or documentation issue rather than a mechanical fault, given the immediate pass. Previous keepers appear to have maintained the car to a basic standard sufficient for annual compliance, with no evidence of skipped tests or recurring problems requiring repeat attention.
