2014 Vauxhall Insignia 2.0L Diesel · DA14 LUO

The vehicle demonstrates a stable maintenance record, with the most recent MOT on 2025-10-10 confirming roadworthiness at 110,105 miles. However, the preceding test on 2025-10-09 resulted in a failure despite no defects being recorded, suggesting a possible administrative error or minor non-compliance not captured in the data. Subsequent tests from 2023-2024 show consistent passes with no defects, indicating the car has met regulatory standards over the past three years. The lack of recurring issues in the MOT history implies the vehicle has been maintained to a satisfactory level, though the abrupt failure without explanation warrants scrutiny. The mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a 12-year-old vehicle, averaging 9,175 miles annually. Tests spaced approximately 12 months apart show steady mileage increases from 96,383 miles in 2023 to 110,105 miles in 2025, with no significant gaps or rapid accumulation. The absence of defects in multiple tests suggests the car has not experienced critical mechanical or structural degradation. However, the sparse data from 2023-2025—only five tests over two years—limits insight into potential wear patterns, particularly in components like suspension bushes or brake discs that may develop issues over time. A buyer should conduct a thorough in-person inspection of the suspension system, focusing on coil springs and bushings, as these can degrade without triggering MOT failures. The braking system, including calipers and discs, should be checked for uneven wear or corrosion, especially given the vehicle’s age. Structural integrity, particularly underbody rust or panel corrosion, is also critical, as MOTs do not always detect hidden damage. While the records show no immediate concerns, the lack of detailed defect descriptions and the unexplained failure warrant cautious evaluation before purchase.
