2016 Vauxhall Corsa 1.4L Petrol · BL16 ACY

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 4 December 2024 at 101,326 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean certificates over the previous several years, suggesting the car has been kept in a condition that meets minimum legal standards without chronic mechanical failures. Mileage accumulation is consistent with the age of the vehicle, averaging roughly 10,133 miles per year. The distance covered between November 2021 at 78,882 miles and November 2022 at 94,823 miles shows a period of higher usage, adding nearly 16,000 miles in a single year. Since then, the annual mileage has stabilised, with only 2,727 miles added between the November 2023 and December 2024 tests. The record is unusually clean for a ten year old Corsa, showing no mentions of corrosion, suspension wear, or brake deterioration. A failure on 24 November 2023 was resolved within six days, though the record does not specify the fault. The absence of any advisories regarding tyre tread or brake pads over the last three tests suggests a proactive approach to consumable replacement by the previous owner. A physical inspection should focus on areas the MOT test may overlook or that typically degrade on this model despite a clean record. Check for oil leaks around the engine seals and inspect the condition of the timing belt and water pump, as these are critical service items not covered by a standard MOT. Examine the chassis and sills for surface rust, as the lack of recorded corrosion does not guarantee the absence of early-stage oxidation.
