2012 Vauxhall Corsa 1.4L Petrol · AX12 KAA

The 2025‑08‑26 MOT at 59,493 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating that the vehicle currently meets the DVSA roadworthiness standards. Since the 2022‑07‑19 test at 40,921 miles, each subsequent inspection has shown no new failures, suggesting a stable maintenance record. The earlier 2024‑07‑17 failure was resolved before the pass, confirming that no lingering issues remain. The mileage trajectory shows a low annual average of about 4,250 miles, yet the last 13 months produced a 13,024‑mile increase, raising the total from 42,546 miles in July 2023 to 59,493 miles in August 2025. The interval between the 2022‑07‑19 and 2023‑07‑06 tests covered 1,625 miles in 11 months, while the 2023‑07‑06 to 2024‑07‑17 period added 3,923 miles in a full year, indicating a steady but not excessive use until the recent acceleration. A buyer should therefore examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, verify that the rear brake calipers are not binding, and inspect the brake discs for scoring or corrosion. Particular attention to structural rust on the chassis and the condition of the exhaust system is advisable, as these components often reveal long‑term neglect. Overall, the vehicle appears roadworthy with a clean recent test, but the recent mileage surge warrants a close look at wear items and any latent corrosion that may have developed during the higher‑usage period.
