2009 Vauxhall Corsa 1.2L Diesel · DN09 KYC

The most recent MOT on 21 July 2022 was a clean pass with no defects recorded at 73,868 miles. The previous test in August 2021 also passed without any issues noted. Based strictly on these two entries, the vehicle shows a stable trend with no evidence of worsening mechanical faults or recurring repair patterns during that period. The car is approximately 17 years old but has covered only 73,868 miles, averaging around 4,345 miles per year. This low annual mileage suggests the vehicle has seen light use or spent significant time stationary. While lower mileage often means less wear on the engine and transmission, long periods of inactivity can lead to deterioration in rubber seals, hoses, and suspension bushes that might not appear in a standard MOT pass. The gap between the last test in mid-2022 and today in mid-2026 means there is no recent official data on its current roadworthiness. Because the history is limited to just two clean passes several years ago, you cannot rely on past results to guarantee present condition. The lack of recorded defects is positive, but the four-year gap since the last inspection is a significant risk factor for a vehicle of this age. You must assume that components which were fine in 2022 may have degraded due to age rather than mileage.
