2018 Vauxhall Corsa 1.4L Petrol · DP18 NFU

This Vauxhall Corsa has demonstrated consistent roadworthiness over its MOT history, with no defects or advisories recorded in any of the five tests conducted between June 2022 and June 2025. The most recent test on 2025-06-09—despite the unusual dual entry (one pass, one fail at identical mileage)—confirms the vehicle passed without issue, though the discrepancy suggests either an administrative error or a rare system glitch rather than a mechanical failure. The absence of recurring faults across multiple tests indicates the vehicle has likely been maintained at a basic level, though no evidence of proactive servicing or wear-and-tear tracking is visible in the record. The mileage progression shows steady usage, averaging around 6,400 miles annually, which aligns with typical light-to-moderate driving patterns for a vehicle of this age. There are no concerning gaps or spikes; the 8,933 miles between the 2022 and 2023 tests and the 8,504 miles between 2023 and 2024 reflect consistent annual mileage accumulation. The final 10,933 miles between June 2024 and June 2025 also follow this pattern, though the identical mileage at the 2025 test date warrants confirmation of odometer accuracy. No red flags emerge from the mileage data alone, but the lack of pre-MOT servicing records means potential wear—particularly in suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake components—could have gone unaddressed. Given the clean MOT history, a prospective buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of high-wear areas that aren’t captured in the MOT test. Focus on the suspension, particularly the rear bushes and coil springs, as these often degrade without immediate fail symptoms. The brakes, while not flagged, should be checked for uneven wear or binding calipers, especially if the vehicle has been driven hard or exposed to wet conditions. Structural integrity—particularly in the wheel arches, sills, and underbody—should be scrutinised for corrosion, as the Corsa’s bodywork is prone to rust in these areas. The dual 2025 test entries also justify verifying the vehicle’s service history for any unrecorded maintenance, as inconsistencies in the MOT data may indicate prior issues that weren’t resolved.
