2009 Vauxhall Insignia Excl NAV 130CDTI 2.0L Diesel · AFZ 6336

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status based on its recent testing history. The most recent MOT conducted on 23 October 2024 at 164,586 miles passed with no defects recorded. This followed a failure just two weeks prior on 7 October 2024 at 164,029 miles; although the record does not specify the fault, the immediate subsequent pass suggests a minor issue was rectified quickly. Since 2021, the car has maintained a consistent record of passes without any recurring advisory notices. The mileage pattern is consistent with a 17-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,700 miles per year. Between May 2021 and August 2022, the car covered 7,250 miles, followed by an increase of 8,572 miles between August 2022 and September 2023. The jump of 11,304 miles between September 2023 and October 2024 indicates a period of higher usage compared to the previous years. This steady accumulation suggests the vehicle is used regularly, which is generally beneficial for maintaining engine seals and components that might suffer from long periods of inactivity. Given the clean MOT history, a physical inspection should focus on age-related wear typical of a high-mileage Insignia of this era. Inspect the front suspension for perished rubber bushes and worn coil springs, as these are common points of failure on this platform. The buyer should also check for structural corrosion on the rear sills and exhaust system, as the MOT does not detect surface rust until it becomes significant. Testing the brake system for binding calipers or thinning discs is advisable to ensure the mechanical condition matches the clean paper record despite the high mileage.
