AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2005 Vauxhall Corsa presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 17 May 2025 at 82,968 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken five-year sequence of clean MOT outcomes. The vehicle shows no worsening faults, no recurring advisories, and no structural or mechanical risks flagged across the available history. Recorded mileage sits at 82,968 against an age of roughly 21 years, equating to about 3,951 miles per year. The tests confirm light use: the tester logged 80,678 miles on 25 May 2024, 78,392 on 6 June 2023, 76,143 on 15 June 2022, and 73,167 on 9 July 2021. Annual accumulation stayed between roughly 2,300 and 3,000 miles with no gaps exceeding thirteen months. Such low, consistent figures suggest gentle private ownership rather than fleet or high-load duty, though prolonged standing periods remain plausible given the totals. A clean MOT ledger offers no advisories on suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, or corrosion to chase up. The buyer should still commission a physical inspection beneath the sills and subframe, as the DVSA test does not strip panels and structural rust can develop unseen on a 2005 shell. Verify the brake calipers are free and the exhaust emissions remain within limits under cold start, since the record only confirms compliance on test day. Given the absence of recorded faults, previous keepers appear to have maintained basic upkeep to test standard. The low mileage implies consumables such as tyres and wiper blades may be aged rather than worn, so check date codes and rubber condition before relying on the car.
