2013 Vauxhall Corsa 1.2L Petrol · DA63 FYJ

The Vauxhall Corsa presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 17 December 2025 at 102,694 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, following a clean pass on 11 November 2024 at 100,993 miles. No advisories or mechanical faults appear across the available history, indicating the vehicle has not shown worsening condition or recurring defects in the recorded period. Recorded mileage sits at 102,694 against a 2013 registration, equating to roughly 7,900 miles per year and reflecting typical use for the age. The gap between the November 2023 failure at 94,804 miles and the December 2025 pass at 102,694 shows only about 7,900 miles added over just over two years, suggesting lighter recent running. The sparse record shows two failed tests in late 2023 and November 2024 with no defects listed, both immediately followed by passes on the same or next attendance, which points to administrative or presentation issues at test rather than mechanical neglect. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and calipers, given the car is now 13 years old and corrosion to structural members can develop unseen between tests. The absence of recorded advisories means wear on consumables such as tyres and wiper blades is unlogged but likely given the mileage. The repeated no-defect failures with instant passes imply the previous owners addressed whatever halted the test without delay, but the DVSA entries alone give no evidence of underlying structural or drivetrain risk. Given the clean trailing record, in-person checks should focus on underbody rust and brake condition rather than fault correction history.
