2016 Vauxhall Corsa 1.4L Petrol · DA16 AMX

This Vauxhall Corsa has demonstrated a stable roadworthiness trend over the past two years, with the most recent MOT test on 2025-04-23 confirming no defects and a clean pass. The absence of advisories or repeated failures in the last two cycles suggests the vehicle has undergone consistent maintenance within the required intervals, though the lack of recorded defects does not preclude hidden wear in non-MOT-tested areas. The final test date of April 2025 means the current MOT remains valid for another six months, placing it in a relatively fresh window for roadworthiness standards. The recorded mileage of 100,339 miles over approximately ten years aligns with typical usage patterns for this model, averaging around 10,000 miles annually. There are no significant gaps or spikes in the MOT history to suggest prolonged neglect or aggressive driving, though the record does not include service intervals or oil change logs. The most notable irregularity is the duplicate test date in January 2023, where the vehicle was initially failed before passing—this could indicate a minor oversight rather than a systemic issue, but it warrants closer inspection of any components that might have been overlooked. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of high-wear items such as suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers, as these are not always tested in depth during standard MOTs. The absence of recorded advisories does not rule out subtle degradation in wheel bearings, steering rack seals, or exhaust system integrity, particularly given the vehicle’s age. Corrosion, especially around wheel arches, sills, and underbody components, should be thoroughly checked, as this is a common failure point for this model class. Finally, the brakes—while not explicitly failed—should be assessed for uneven wear or binding, as repeated failures in this area are often indicative of neglect.
