2017 Vauxhall Insignia 2.0L Diesel · DS67 VPZ

The vehicle currently holds a clean roadworthiness status following a successful MOT test in October 2025 at 156,604 miles. The maintenance trend shows a sign of improvement after a period of instability in early 2025. While the car failed two consecutive tests in March and April of that year, the subsequent passes with no recorded defects indicate that the identified mechanical issues were addressed and rectified. The vehicle is currently operating within legal parameters as of its last inspection. At 156,604 miles, this Insignia reflects a high-mileage profile, averaging approximately 17,400 miles per year. The data reveals a significant surge in usage between October 2024 and April 2025, where the vehicle covered 24,236 miles in just six months. This rapid accumulation suggests heavy motor road use, which places accelerated stress on the drivetrain, suspension, and braking components. The gap between the October 2025 test and the current date is nine months, meaning the vehicle is not yet overdue but is approaching its next annual inspection. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension geometry and bushings, as the high mileage and the previous failures in early 2025 often point to wear in control arms and links. Given the intensive usage, checking the state of the brake discs for thinning and signs of caliper binding is essential. Although the most recent record shows no defects, the high mileage suggests that consumable components are nearing the end of their service life. Focus should also be paid to structural integrity around the underbody to check for corrosion that may be consistent with the heavy-duty nature of the vehicle's recent history.
