2009 Vauxhall Corsa 1.4L Petrol · AF59 UGN

The Vauxhall Corsa presents as roadworthy following the most recent test on 9 March 2026 at 92,586 miles, where it passed with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable across the three years of available history, with no advisories or mechanical faults flagged at any stage. The owner cleared the 2026 and 2025 failures on the same day as the pass, indicating the car was retested immediately after administrative or minor non-mechanical correction rather than after repair of worn components. The recorded mileage shows light use for a 2009 vehicle. It covered 85,626 miles at the 4 March 2024 test, rose to 89,326 miles by 11 March 2025, and reached 92,586 miles by 9 March 2026. That equates to roughly 3,300 miles per year across the recorded period, well below typical averages and consistent with the 5,446 miles per year lifetime figure. The clean record with no corrosion, suspension, or brake advisories suggests the car has not endured heavy cyclical loading, though low mileage with the 2025 and 2026 same-day fail-then-pass pattern implies the initial failures were likely documentation or emissions-related rather than consumable wear. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion, as the MOT record shows no advisories but does not confirm the tester examined hidden chassis rot on a 17-year-old hatchback. The absence of brake disc, caliper, or suspension bush comments across all three tests is reassuring, yet standing periods implied by low annual mileage can seize handbrake mechanisms or flat-spot tyres. Verify the tyre sidewalls, brake binding, and exhaust condition in person before purchase.
