2015 Vauxhall Insignia SRI NAV Cdti ECO S/S 2.0L Heavy oil · CP64 RNA

The most recent MOT, carried out on 16 November 2025, was passed with no recorded defects, and the preceding test on 21 October 2025 also resulted in a pass despite being logged as a failure – a clerical outcome that left the defect column empty. Over the seven‑year recorded history the vehicle has alternated between passes and a couple of failure entries, yet each instance shows no substantive faults being noted. This pattern suggests a stable maintenance regime rather than a deteriorating one; the car has consistently met the statutory safety and emissions criteria and there is no evidence of recurring mechanical issues emerging from the MOT data. At 94,448 miles the 2015 Vauxhall Insignia averages roughly 8,600 miles per annum, which sits comfortably within the typical usage envelope for a vehicle of its age. The mileage progression appears linear with no large gaps that would indicate prolonged periods of inactivity, nor any sudden spikes that would point to intensive short‑term use. Consequently the wear on wear‑items such as tyres, brake pads and discs, and suspension components is likely to be moderate and consistent with the calendar age, rather than being accelerated by high‑stress driving or excessive idling. Given the clean MOT record, the buyer should focus on age‑related inspections. Examine the tyre sidewalls for cracking, dry rot or perished rubber, especially if the tyres have not been replaced recently, as ageing compounds can fail irrespective of tread depth. Check the 12‑volt battery for terminal corrosion, electrolyte level (if accessible) and perform a load test to confirm it can sustain cranking under load, as batteries over ten years often suffer from sulphation. Inspect the brake discs for surface rust, scoring or uneven wear, and verify that the calipers move freely without binding; any pulsation or shudder under braking would warrant a disc resurfacing or replacement. Additionally, confirm that the engine oil, coolant, and brake fluid have been changed at the manufacturer‑recommended intervals, as fluids degrade over time even when mileage is modest. Finally, a thorough visual and tactile inspection of the suspension is advisable. Look for cracked or deteriorated rubber bushes, worn ball joints, and any play in the front and rear coil springs or dampers. Listen for clunking or knocking noises when the car is driven over bumps or during cornering, which could indicate loosened mounts or worn bushings. Verify that the exhaust system is free from rust perforations or loose hangers, and that all emission control components, such as the catalytic converter, appear intact. A comprehensive test drive that includes steady cruising, gentle braking, and moderate cornering will help reveal any latent issues before finalising the purchase.
