2017 Vauxhall Adam 1.2L Petrol · DA15 EYT

The vehicle currently holds a positive roadworthiness status, showing an improving trend in maintenance compliance. The most recent inspection on 16 March 2026 at 82,516 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating that the owner has successfully addressed previous issues. While the history shows a pattern of immediate failures followed by passes, the lack of recent advis suggests the car is currently being maintained to a functional standard without defects. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,168 miles per year. Between March 2024 and March 2025, the car covered 11,475 miles, followed by another 10,614 miles leading to the March 2026 test. This steady accumulation suggests regular annual use rather than long periods of stagnation, which is generally beneficial for rubber components and brake seals to prevent seizing. The intervals between tests are also consistent, reflecting a proactive approach to annual legal requirements. The recurring failures in March 2024 and March 2025 indicate that specific mechanical components required attention shortly before the test deadlines. Although the record provided does not list the specific technical reasons for these failures, the pattern of failing and then passing often points to consumable items such as bulbs, tyres, or minor exhaust leaks. A buyer should perform a physical inspection of the suspension bushes and brake discs to ensure no new wear is developing after the recent repairs. Given the age of the Vauxhall Adam, checking for structural integrity and corrosion on the sills remains a necessary step to confirm the long-term viability of the chassis.
