2012 Vauxhall Corsa 1.0L Petrol · CE12 OPS

The 2025‑08‑07 MOT at 121,875 miles passed with no defects recorded, confirming that the Vauxhall Corsa remains roadworthy as of the latest test. Earlier failures on the same day at 121,873 miles showed no recorded defects, indicating that any minor issues were corrected before the successful retest, and the overall maintenance trend is stable. Mileage has risen from 101,679 miles in the October 2023 test to 121,875 miles in August 2025, an increase of 20,196 miles over 22 months, or roughly 8,700 miles per year, which aligns with the typical usage for a 14‑year‑old vehicle and shows no evidence of long standing periods of inactivity or unusually rapid mileage accumulation. Inspect the front and rear suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking or corrosion, examine brake discs and calipers for binding or uneven wear, verify the condition of the exhaust system for rust or perforation, and assess structural integrity for any signs of rust on the chassis or wheel arches. Check tyre tread depth, wiper blade condition, and fluid levels, as these consumables often reveal neglect despite a clean MOT history. While the documented record contains no recurring mechanical faults, the absence of defects in the most recent test does not guarantee the absence of hidden wear, so a thorough physical inspection is essential before purchase.
