2016 Vauxhall Corsa 1.4L Petrol · DP16 KWV

The vehicle's most recent MOT test on 4 March 2026 at 83,089 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded, indicating a stable maintenance trend. This positive outcome follows a period of minor issues; the January 2025 test at 76,692 miles passed with only a single advisory regarding nearside front tyre wear, while the January 2024 test initially failed due to critical lighting faults and an unsafe offside front tyre before being rectified and passed. The earlier 2023 test at 64,260 miles also passed with advisories on tyre condition. Collectively, the record shows a recent improvement in roadworthiness, with the vehicle now presenting no apparent faults. Mileage accumulation aligns closely with expected usage for a 2016 model, averaging approximately 8,300 miles per year over the decade. The gap between the 2023 and 2024 tests reflects normal annual retesting intervals, with mileage increasing steadily from 64,260 to 71,106 miles within that timeframe. The subsequent increase to 76,692 miles by January 2025 and the current 83,089 miles in March 2026 suggest consistent, moderate use without evidence of excessive strain or prolonged inactivity. The data is complete and shows no irregular jumps or concerning omissions. Prospective buyers should verify the condition of the front tyres, particularly checking for uneven wear patterns that may indicate alignment or suspension issues, as both front tyres were flagged as worn in 2023 and 2025. The lighting system, especially the headlamp assemblies and registration plate illumination, warrant inspection following the 2024 failures. Given the age and mileage, attention should also be directed towards the suspension bushes, steering components, and brake system, including discs and calipers, to ensure no latent issues have developed since the last clean test. A thorough undercarriage check for corrosion, particularly around the rear suspension mounts and exhaust system, remains advisable despite the absence of structural advisories in the record.
