2018 Vauxhall Insignia 1.6L Petrol · DA68 MYM

The Vauxhall Insignia presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 23 April 2025 at 38,496 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and this follows four consecutive annual passes with zero advisories or failures. The vehicle shows no worsening mechanical condition across the recorded history. Annual mileage sits low for an eight-year-old car, averaging roughly 4,812 miles per year. The record charts 21,231 miles at the December 2021 test, rising to 26,310 by December 2022, 32,096 by December 2023, 37,681 by December 2024, and 38,496 by April 2025. The step from 37,681 to 38,496 over a four-month window suggests light use and possible prolonged standing periods. No gaps exist between tests; the owner kept the MOT cycle continuous with no lapsed certificates. A clean MOT sheet with no flagged suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, or corrosion means no recurring faults demand follow-up. The low mileage and zero advisories imply the previous keeper carried out basic upkeep and avoided neglect of consumables. Standing time rather than hard driving likely shaped the wear profile. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of underbody structural integrity and brake calipers for seizing after disuse, plus check tyre sidewall condition from long static storage. The DVSA record alone cannot confirm fluid changes or hidden rust, so a workshop ramp check remains sensible before purchase.
