2018 Vauxhall Insignia 1.5L Petrol · BV68 GLZ

The vehicle shows an improving maintenance trend following a single failure in late 2022. The most recent test on 5 November 2025 resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows consecutive clean passes in November 2024 and November 2023, suggesting that the issues identified in previous years have been addressed. The recorded mileage of 53,078 miles over approximately eight years represents an average annual usage of roughly 6,635 miles. This low-to-moderate mileage pattern is consistent with the vehicle's age. The MOT history shows regular annual testing without significant gaps in documentation, providing a continuous record of the vehicle's compliance since at least 2022. The 9 November 2022 test recorded a failure due to a dangerous defect, specifically rear brake pads measuring less than 1.5 mm thick. While the subsequent three tests show no further brake-related issues or advisories, a physical inspection of the braking system remains necessary. A buyer should check for uneven pad wear, the condition of the brake discs, and any signs of binding calipers to ensure the previous failure does not indicate a recurring pattern of neglected consumable wear. Given the lack of recent advisories regarding suspension components, tyres, or exhaust emissions, the mechanical record is relatively clean. However, because the MOT history is limited to the last four years, a manual check of the underside for corrosion and an inspection of the suspension bushes and coil springs is advisable to supplement the electronic record. buying_score: 75 risk_level: Low.
