2009 Vauxhall Corsa 1.4L Petrol · AJ59 WHC

The 2009 Vauxhall Corsa presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 18 November 2025 at 23,011 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken run of clean results across the available history. The recorded mileage shows very light use for a seventeen-year-old vehicle. It rose from 16,982 miles at the December 2022 tests to 19,022 miles in November 2023, then 20,986 miles in November 2024, and 23,011 miles in November 2025. That equates to roughly 1,350 miles per year, with no gaps or sudden accumulation. The DVSA data is sparse but clean, showing no advisories or consumable wear flags across any entry. One anomaly sits in the record. On 2 December 2022 the car failed and passed on the same day at identical mileage, yet the tester logged no defects for either outcome. This suggests an administrative or process error at the testing station rather than a mechanical fault. Buyers should still confirm the V5C and any garage invoices to clarify that sequence. Given the absence of flagged corrosion, suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust issues, the Corsa looks structurally sound on paper. A physical inspection should nonetheless check for standing-water damage, perished rubber, and flat-spotted tyres from long idle periods, since low annual mileage often masks deterioration that a pass certificate will not capture.
