2018 Vauxhall Corsa 1.4L Petrol · DP68 XOK

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT in November 2025 at 86,086 miles. The maintenance trend shows a period of instability followed by a resolution of faults. While the car currently presents a clean record, the history reveals two consecutive failures in 2024 and 2025 regarding the electronic stability control warning lamp. This indicates that the previous owner successfully identified and repaired an electrical fault to achieve subsequent passing results. The mileage pattern is consistent with an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,700 miles per year. Between November 2023 at 61,740 miles and November 2025 at 86,086 miles, the car covered over 24,000 miles in two years, representing a period of higher usage that likely accelerated the wear on suspension bushings and drivetrain components. The intervals between tests remain regular, suggesting a consistent testing schedule which is a positive indicator of monitoring the vehicle's mechanical condition. A buyer should specifically inspect the electronic stability system to ensure the previous fault has not recurred, as this issue required two separate interventions. The 2023 failure also highlighted uneven tyre wear on the offside front and nearside rear, which often points to tracking alignment issues or worn suspension components. A physical inspection of the control arm bushes and shock absorbers is advisable to confirm that the higher mileage period has not caused premature degradation of the suspension geometry.
