2005 Vauxhall Tigra 1.4L Petrol · CW54 MPZ

The 2005 Vauxhall Tigra presents a stable roadworthiness status with no recorded defects across its three most recent MOT tests. The October 2023 examination at 14,477 miles returned a clean pass, matching the fault-free results from October 2022 at 14,373 miles and September 2021 at 14,224 miles. The maintenance trend is steady with no worsening or emerging advisories across this period. The mileage pattern shows exceptionally low use for a 21-year-old vehicle. Between September 2021 and October 2023 the odometer advanced only 253 miles, averaging under 130 miles per year across those two intervals. The three tests span just over two years with consistent, minimal accumulation, suggesting the car spent long periods stationary rather than seeing regular road use. The record is sparse but entirely clean, with no failures or advisories to interrogate. A buyer should still inspect the Tigra in person for issues that MOT tests at this low mileage may not expose. Prolonged standing commonly degrades suspension bushes, tyres, and brake calipers through seizing or flatspotting, even when a test shows no defects. The tester recorded no corrosion or structural concerns, yet 21 years of age invites careful checks to sills, subframes, and brake discs for rust pitting. Given the clean history and minimal use, previous owners likely stored the car rather than neglected basic upkeep, as no repeat failures on consumables appear. Confirm the condition of flexible brake hoses, coolant, and cambelt interval before purchase, since low mileage does not pause age-related deterioration of rubber and fluid components.
