2009 Vauxhall Insignia 1.8L Petrol · DA09 VRD

The Vauxhall Insignia presents as roadworthy following its most recent pass on 27 February 2026 at 114,078 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the last three years. The DVSA record shows no defects logged at any test, though the vehicle failed twice on administrative grounds rather than mechanical fault, first on 13 February 2025 at 110,774 miles and again on 21 February 2026 at 114,074 miles, before passing days later each time. Mileage sits at a typical 6,710 per year for a 2009 car, with 114,078 recorded at the latest test. The gap between the 6 March 2024 pass at 109,950 miles and the February 2025 tests shows only 824 miles added in eleven months, implying the car stood largely unused or covered very short local trips. From February 2025 to February 2026 the odometer rose 3,304 miles, a return to modest annual use with no rapid accumulation or concerning spikes. No advisories or defects appear in the history, so the MOT data alone reveals no recurring wear on suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or structural corrosion. The repeated no-defect failures suggest clerical or presentation issues at the testing station rather than owner neglect of consumables. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of underside structural integrity and exhaust emissions given the car's seventeen-year age and low recent mileage, as standing vehicles commonly develop seized calipers, flat-spotted tyres, and hidden rust not captured in a clean MOT sheet.
