2009 Vauxhall Corsa 1.2L Petrol · AV59 FCP

The most recent MOT test on 19 November 2025 at 94,579 miles records a passed result, though the same test date and mileage also show a failed outcome with no defects listed. The overall maintenance trend is stable, with the vehicle passing its tests cleanly over the preceding two years. The pass on 28 November 2024 at 83,926 miles and the pass on 30 November 2023 at 77,661 miles confirm consistent roadworthiness. The dual pass/fail entry on the latest date suggests a procedural anomaly rather than a mechanical deterioration, and no recurring defects appear in the history. The mileage profile reflects light use over the vehicle's 17 years, averaging roughly 5,563 miles annually. The year to November 2024 saw 6,265 miles added, while the subsequent year to November 2025 recorded a sharper accumulation of 10,653 miles. This acceleration in mileage may indicate increased usage or a change in ownership patterns, but the test record remains unbroken with annual inspections. No extended gaps in MOT coverage appear, and the odometer progression aligns with the documented service intervals. A buyer should inspect the vehicle for age-related wear despite the clean MOT history. The low annual mileage can mask the degradation of rubber suspension bushes, anti-roll bar links, and steering gaiters, which deteriorate with time regardless of use. Inspect brake discs and drums for thickness and pitting, as the 2009 model is now 17 years old and the MOT does not record specific brake wear advisories. Scrutinise corrosion around the sills, wheel arches, and exhaust mounting points, given the vehicle's age and the potential for hidden structural rust that the tester may not have flagged if the damage did not meet the dangerous threshold.
