Our Verdict
Proceed with caution and budget for imme
When viewing this specific vehicle, prioritise checking the condition of all four tyres. The 2026 MOT specifically flagged both front tyres as being worn close to the legal limit, with the offside front showing uneven wear on both inner and outer edges. This could suggest an alignment issue that should be addressed immediately.
Ask the seller for evidence regarding the TPMS (Tyre Pressure Monitoring System) light mentioned in the latest MOT. You should also confirm if the nearside rear shock absorber, which showed oil misting in 2023, has been inspected or replaced since that failure. Finally, ensure the windscreen wipers are functioning correctly, as they were a recorded failure point in 2023.
As a 1.4L petrol Euro 6 engine, this Corsa is designed for relatively efficient urban and suburban driving. Tax bands and insurance groups for this model vary depending on the specific trim level, but it generally sits in a mid-range category for small hatchbacks.
Maintenance costs should be considered alongside the recent MOT findings; you will likely need to budget for a full set of tyres and a TPMS sensor check shortly after purchase. Typical annual running costs for a vehicle of this age and mileage include fuel, standard servicing, and insurance.
A primary inspection point must be the tyres and wheel alignment. The MOT history shows a recurring theme of tyre wear, including uneven edges on the offside front in 2026 and a single tyre issue in 2025. This pattern warrants a check of the suspension components to ensure the car tracks straight.
Additionally, inspect the shock absorbers. Although the 2023 failure for 'light misting of oil' was resolved for the pass, it is worth checking the nearside rear for any signs of renewed leakage. Lastly, test the TPMS system and the windscreen wiper performance to ensure the issues noted in the 2026 and 2023 tests have been fully rectified.
This 2019 white Vauxhall Corsa 1.4L petrol has covered 42,770 miles since its first registration in June 2019. The MOT history shows a pattern of wear-related issues, specifically regarding tyres and wipers, alongside a previous failure for shock absorber misting. While it has passed its tests, the recent 2026 MOT indicates several items are nearing or at legal limits.
Aggregate data for this model shows an average MOT pass rate of 76.2%, with common failures related to headlamps, coil springs, and exhausts.
