2017 Vauxhall Corsa 1.4L Petrol · DH18 ODV

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a slight decline in proactive care over recent years. The most recent test in June 2025 at 32,185 miles resulted in a pass following an initial failure for insufficient washer fluid, headlamp misalignment, and a worn offside front tyre. While these issues were rectified to secure the pass, the pattern suggests the owner only addresses faults once an MOT test fails rather than performing routine preventative maintenance. At nine years old with 32,185 miles, the Corsa has significantly low mileage, averaging approximately 3,500 miles per year. This low usage profile generally preserves the drivetrain and interior components, but the data also reveals long gaps between tests. For instance, the vehicle covered nearly 7,000 miles between May 2022 and July 2024, and another 7,000 miles in the following year. Such long periods of low-intensity stationary use can lead to the degradation of rubber components and corrosion of brake surfaces, as evidenced in the record. A buyer should specifically inspect the front suspension and alignment, as recurring advisories for tyres worn on edges in 2023, 2024, and 2025 indicate a persistent tracking issue or worn suspension bushes. The 2024 report of pitted and scored brake discs at only 27,253 miles is typical of low-mileage cars that sit for long periods, allowing rust to form on the metal. Verify the current condition of the front discs and ensure the headlamp aim remains correctly adjusted to avoid the failure seen in 2025.
