2014 Vauxhall Corsa 1.2L Petrol · CX14 GDK

The Vauxhall Corsa presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 26 February 2026 at 100,459 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three preceding annual passes show no advisories or mechanical faults flagged by testers. This clean run indicates the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that satisfies DVLA roadworthiness requirements across the observed period. Mileage progression sits close to typical use for a 2014 hatchback. The record shows 81,100 miles at the February 2023 test, rising to 89,088 miles by February 2024, then 89,216 miles on the March 2024 pass, 94,086 miles in March 2025, and 100,459 miles in February 2026. That equates to roughly 6,000 to 7,000 miles per year between tests, below the 8,372 annual average implied by the total, suggesting gentle domestic use rather than high-load commuting. The only anomaly is the 24 February 2024 failure at 89,088 miles, which the DVSA entry lists with no defects recorded, a pattern consistent with an administrative or documentation issue rather than a mechanical fault, immediately corrected by the pass eight days later. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc thickness given the car is now twelve years old and past 100,000 miles. The MOT history raises no corrosion, exhaust emission, or structural integrity concerns across the five entries, so no recurring defect trend exists to target. Previous owners appear to have kept basic consumable wear and statutory test compliance in check, with no skipped years and no tyre, wiper, or lighting advisories logged. Given the absence of flagged faults, the main risk is latent wear not yet at test-threshold levels. Check for early bush degradation, handbrake travel, and underbody rust at chassis mounting points before purchase, as these items draw no MOT attention until significantly worn.
