2015 Vauxhall Insignia 2.0L Diesel · BP15 YEX

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history indicates a reactive rather than proactive approach to repairs. While the most recent test in September 2025 at 110,973 miles passed, it revealed multiple advisories regarding pitted and scored brake discs and front tyres reaching the legal limit. This suggests the previous owner only addressed components once they reach failure or critical thresholds. The trend remains stable in terms of passing, yet recurring issues with consumables persist across the last three years. At 110,973 miles over 11 years, the Insignia averages roughly 10,000 miles per annum, which aligns with typical usage for a vehicle of this age. The record shows consistent annual testing, with approximately 11,200 miles driven between the 2023 and 2024 tests, and another 7,400 miles between August 2024 and September 2025. This steady mileage suggests the car is used regularly, which generally helps prevent the internal corrosion associated with long periods of standing. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension and braking system. The August 2023 failure highlighted a fractured nearside rear coil spring and a torn anti-roll bar linkage dust cover in 2024, indicating that rubber and spring components are experiencing significant wear. Given the 2025 advisories on pitted brake discs, the hardware should be checked for thickness and the calipers to ensure they are not binding or causing uneven wear. The history of failed plate lamps and bulbs also suggests that minor electrical and external faults are frequently overlooked until they cause a failure.
