2017 Vauxhall Corsa 1.4L Petrol · DA67 ODK

The Vauxhall Corsa presents as roadworthy following the most recent test on 7 November 2025 at 127,247 miles, where the tester recorded a pass with no defects. The maintenance trend across the available history is stable, with every annual examination from 15 November 2022 through to the latest date returning a clean result. The only irregularity appears on the same day in November 2025, when a failure was logged at 127,245 miles with no defects cited before a pass issued two miles later; this points to an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Annual mileage sits at roughly 14,139 miles, high for a 2017 supermini but consistent across the record. The car covered 78,463 miles by 15 November 2022, rose to 92,133 by 20 November 2023, then 109,060 by 13 November 2024, and reached 127,247 by 7 November 2025. The near-uniform 13,000 to 18,000 mile gaps show steady use with no standing periods or sudden accumulation spikes. The DVSA data is sparse on faults, recording no advisories across four years, which suggests either disciplined upkeep or tests conducted to a lenient standard. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the mileage and nine-year age. The absence of corrosion or structural advisories in the record offers no guarantee against hidden rust at sills or subframes, so a ramp check remains prudent. Verify the circumstances of the 7 November 2025 failure with the selling garage, as a no-defect reject followed by a pass at 127,247 miles warrants confirmation that no suppressed advisory existed. Tyres and wiper blades will likely need consumable replacement soon under this usage pattern, though nothing in the MOT history demands immediate mechanical intervention. The drivetrain shows no recorded warning signs, but high annual miles on a small petrol unit argue for a cold-start assessment and a look at cambelt service evidence before purchase.
