2010 Vauxhall Corsa 1.2L Petrol · CY59 LVM

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on 20 February 2026 at 145,908 miles with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend appears stable as the car has maintained a clean record following previous failures. While the history shows failures in 2024 and 2025, the immediate re-tests resulted in successful passes, indicating that the owner is proactive in addressing identified mechanical or safety issues rather than allowing minor faults to persist. At 16 years old, the 145,908 miles represent an annual average of approximately 9,119 miles, which aligns closely with typical UK usage for a small city hatchback. The data shows a consistent usage pattern, with 3,797 miles covered between March 2024 and February 2025, and another 3,226 miles between February 2025 and February 2026. This steady progression suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of stagnation, which often leads to the degradation of rubber components and fluid seals. A prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity and suspension components, as these are the most common areas for failure on Corsas of this era. Despite the recent clean pass, the age and mileage suggest potential corrosion on the sills, rear arches, and brake lines. Given the previous failures in 2024 and 2025, a close check of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers is necessary to ensure that the issues previously remediated are not currently recurring due to accelerated wear.
