2010 Vauxhall Corsa 1.4L Petrol · DN10 OBJ

The vehicle holds a current MOT validity, having passed the June 2025 test at 110,078 miles with only an offside rear tyre advisory for slight sidewall cracking. The maintenance trend shows a clear improvement after a cluster of failures in 2023‑2024; the most recent record now reflects only minor advisories rather than the previous outright failures on exhaust emissions and suspension corrosion. Consequently the car is roadworthy, but the history indicates lingering susceptibility in the suspension and exhaust systems that merit close scrutiny. Mileage accumulation has been steady at roughly 6,880 miles per year over the 16‑year lifespan, a rate typical for a 2010 model. MOT entries are dated June 2025, May 2024, June 2023, June 2022, June 2021, June 2020 and then annually back to 2017, with occasional dual entries on the same day. The spacing between tests is generally around 11‑12 months, and there are no sudden mileage jumps that would suggest abnormal usage; the record is sufficiently dense to track wear trends without notable gaps. A buyer should inspect the front suspension arms for corrosion and the sub‑frame for rust, as both have been flagged repeatedly since 2022. The exhaust system warrants examination for carbon‑monoxide exceedances and flexi‑pipe leaks, and the parking brake should be tested for the low efficiency readings recorded in 2023. Brake discs and pads show wear history, and the rear shock absorbers have a past fluid‑leak fault, so damping performance must be verified. Finally, the rear tyre condition should be checked against the advisory, and any structural rust around the sub‑frame or mounting points assessed for integrity before purchase.
