2011 Vauxhall Corsa 1.2L Petrol · DA61 LTX

The Vauxhall Corsa presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 9 September 2025 at 100,614 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, though the DVSA log also shows a failed attempt on the same date and mileage with no defects listed, a clerical or administrative anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. Prior tests in 2024, 2023, and 2022 all passed cleanly with no advisories, indicating the vehicle has avoided recurring workshop issues across the past four years. Annual mileage sits at a typical level for a 15-year-old car. The record shows 81,890 miles in September 2022, rising to 90,473 by August 2023, 96,542 by August 2024, and 100,614 by September 2025. That equates to roughly 6,700 to 8,900 miles per year, a consistent and undemanding pattern with no abrupt accumulation or long dormant gaps. The sparse, clean history suggests previous owners kept basic statutory testing current without neglect, though no deeper service record is visible here. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the age and century-mark mileage. The MOT data flags no corrosion or structural integrity concerns, yet Vauxhall Corsas of this era commonly develop subframe rust and worn track rod ends outside the test window. Verify the September 2025 duplicate entry with DVLA paperwork to confirm the pass stands as the live certificate. Given the absence of advisories across five consecutive tests, serious mechanical risk appears low for the price point. Treat the car as a lightly used per-year runner needing only standard consumable checks on tyres, wiper blades, and fluid condition before purchase.
