2013 Vauxhall Corsa 1.4L Petrol · DR10 LHM

The most recent MOT on 2026-02-24 shows the vehicle passed and failed on the same date, indicating mixed outcomes. The passed test noted a central rear child seat obstructing adult belt inspection and a nearside front tyre with a minor side-wall damage. The failed test added a non-working nearside stop lamp, suggesting unresolved electrical issues. These findings highlight ongoing concerns with tyre condition and lighting systems. Recurring mechanical patterns include shock absorber leaks and child seat interference . In 2024, offside front shock absorbers had a serious fluid leak, while later entries (2024–2026) mention light oil misting. The child seat issue reappeared in multiple MOTs, likely affecting inspection access. While shock absorber problems may have been addressed by 2026, the persistence of tyre and lighting faults suggests unresolved maintenance needs. The vehicle’s mileage of 102,002 miles over 13 years averages 7,846 miles annually, which is typical for its age. This implies moderate use rather than heavy wear, though higher mileage could accelerate wear on consumables like brakes and suspension.
