Our Verdict
A strong candidate for buyers seeking a modern, mid-sized saloon with a consistent inspection record. The vehicle has maintained a clean MOT history since its first test in 2021.
When viewing this 1.5L petrol Insignia, you should request the service history to see how the 1490cc engine has been maintained between MOT intervals. While the MOT history is clean, these models benefit from regular oil changes to maintain engine longevity.
Check that all electronic features and infotainment systems are functioning correctly, as these are common touchpoints in modern Vauxhalls. Since there have been no MOT failures for defects like tyres, brakes, or lights, it is still worth performing a physical inspection of these wear items to ensure they are within legal limits.
The 1.5L petrol engine is generally positioned in a moderate insurance group and tax band, making it suitable for many drivers. Fuel economy for this engine size in a mid-sized saloon is typically efficient for mixed driving, though actual figures will depend on your driving style and load.
Maintenance costs for the Insignia are generally aligned with mainstream manufacturers, though parts for specific electronic components can vary. You should budget for standard servicing and periodic replacement of consumables like brake pads and tyres.
As the MOT history shows no recorded defects, there are no specific recurring failure patterns to warn you about on this particular car. However, you should inspect the underside for any signs of fluid leaks that may not have been significant enough to trigger an MOT advisory.
Pay close attention to the condition of the black paintwork for any signs of stone chips or scratches, and check the tyres for even wear. Given the mileage is just over 50,000, check the condition of the brake discs and pads, as these are standard wear items that may be approaching the end of their service life.
This 2018 Vauxhall Insignia, finished in black, has covered 50,982 miles as of its most recent MOT in November 2025. The vehicle's history shows five consecutive MOT passes without a single recorded defect or failure. Given its age and mileage, it appears to have been used for moderate annual distances, averaging roughly 7,500 miles per year.
