Our Verdict
This is a strong candidate for a buyer looking for a low-mileage petrol hatchback. The recent MOT history shows a consistent pattern of passes without recorded defects over the last three years.
When inspecting this specific 1.4L Corsa, focus on the service history to confirm that oil changes have been performed at regular intervals, as this is vital for the longevity of the 1398cc engine. While the MOT history is clean, you should still check for any signs of uneven tyre wear or brake pad depletion, which are common in urban driving scenarios.
Negotiate based on the service intervals and whether the manufacturer's warranty or any extended coverage is still applicable. Ask the seller for evidence of recent maintenance that may not have been captured by the MOT testing process, such as fluid changes or spark plug replacements.
As a 1.4L petrol engine, this Corsa sits in a relatively accessible insurance group, making it a viable option for younger drivers or those looking for predictable premiums. Fuel economy for this engine variant is typically moderate, suitable for a mix of city and motorway driving.
Maintenance costs for the Corsa are generally considered standard for a small hatchback, with many parts being widely available and affordable. You should budget for routine items like tyres, wipers, and brake components. The estimated annual running cost, including fuel, tax, insurance, and basic maintenance, is approximately £1,200-£1,500.
The MOT history for this vehicle is notable for having no defects recorded in its most recent three tests (2023, 2024, and 2025). However, there was a failure recorded in December 2022 at 29,169 miles; while no specific defect was listed in the summary provided, you should ask the seller for clarification on what caused that failure to ensure it was rectified permanently.
Beyond the MOT records, inspect the white paintwork for any signs of stone chips or scratches, which are common on white vehicles used on motorways. Check the interior for wear on the driver's seat bolster and steering wheel, which can indicate how much the car has been used despite the relatively low mileage of 50,384.
This 2018 Vauxhall Corsa (BV68KTX) is a 1.4L petrol model with 50,384 miles on the clock as of its last test in December 2025. The vehicle has a relatively clean MOT record, having achieved three consecutive passes with no defects recorded since late 2022. Given its age and mileage, it appears to have been used for moderate annual distances.
