Our Verdict
Recommended. This 2021 Corsa SE Premium is a low-mileage example with a very clean MOT record, making it a safe and sensible choice for a city car buyer.
Given the low mileage and clean MOT history, this vehicle is in a strong position. You should focus your attention on the service history to ensure the oil changes have been performed at the correct intervals, as this is critical for the longevity of the 1.2L engine.
Negotiate based on the remaining tread depth of the tyres, as the 2025 MOT highlighted wear on the nearside front. Check if this was rectified immediately or if the tyres are nearing the end of their life again, which provides a small opening for a price reduction.
The 1199cc petrol engine is designed for efficiency, offering a good balance between performance and fuel economy. As a Euro 6 vehicle, it avoids most daily charges in Clean Air Zones, and its insurance group is typically low, making it affordable for new drivers or commuters.
Annual costs will be kept low due to the modest mileage. Expect standard maintenance costs for a modern hatchback, primarily consisting of annual servicing and occasional consumables like wipers and tyres.
While the MOT history is clean, you should specifically check the front tyres. The May 2025 test noted a nearside front tyre worn close to the legal limit; verify that this has been replaced with a quality brand to ensure safety and balanced handling.
Perform a general check of the grey paintwork for any minor urban scuffs and ensure all electronics in the SE Premium trim are functioning correctly. Check the service book for a stamp confirming the most recent annual inspection to complement the clean MOT results.
This grey Vauxhall Corsa SE Premium has covered just 25,069 miles since May 2021, which is well below the typical average for its age. The MOT history is impressively clean, with only one minor tyre advisory recorded in 2025. Its Euro 6 status ensures it remains compliant with UK low-emission zones.
While specific aggregate data for the SE Premium is unavailable, the 1.2L engine in this generation of Corsa is generally regarded as a reliable, modern powertrain.
