2016 Vauxhall Corsa 1.4L Petrol · B7 NVN

This Vauxhall Corsa has maintained a consistently clean MOT history since its most recent test on 27 June 2025, with no defects or advisories recorded at 80,671 miles. The pattern of annual testing—without failings—suggests the vehicle has undergone regular, if not rigorous, servicing, though the absence of advisories in prior years means no proactive warnings were issued. The latest test was conducted just over a year ago, which is within the standard MOT validity period, though buyers should verify whether interim maintenance (such as brake fluid changes or suspension inspections) has been documented outside the MOT cycle. The recorded mileage of 80,671 miles over ten years indicates average usage, with roughly 8,067 miles per annum—a rate that aligns with typical light-to-moderate driving patterns. There are no suspicious gaps in mileage between tests; the intervals between 2022 and 2025 are consistent, averaging around 6,000 miles per year. The duplicate entry for July 2023 (a failed test followed immediately by a pass at the same mileage) is unusual but may reflect a minor oversight in the testing process rather than a mechanical issue, as no defects were logged. This suggests the vehicle was either retested promptly or the failure was administrative rather than technical. Given the lack of recorded defects, the most critical areas for a buyer to inspect independently would be the suspension components—particularly the rear coil springs and bushes, which are prone to wear in this model—and the brake system, including caliper binding and disc thickness. The absence of advisories on emissions or exhaust integrity implies the catalytic converter and related systems remain functional, but a visual check for leaks or corrosion around the exhaust manifold is advisable. Structural integrity should also be assessed, focusing on the wheel arches, sills, and subframe for signs of rust penetration, as this model is susceptible to corrosion in high-salt regions. The tyres, while not flagged in MOTs, should be examined for uneven wear, which could indicate alignment or suspension issues.
