2013 Vauxhall Adam 1.4L Petrol · DU63 WHB

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following a clean MOT pass on July 31, 2025 at 57,443 miles. This result indicates that the mechanical issues identified in previous years have been addressed effectively. While the history shows a period of instability, the lack of advisories in the most recent test suggests the current owner is proactive in maintaining safety-critical components before they reach a failure state. At 57,443 miles over thirteen thirteen years, this Vauxhall Adam has covered significantly low mileage, averaging approximately 4,400 miles per year. The mileage progression is consistent, with roughly 5,600 miles recorded between the July 2023 and 2024 tests, and another 5,000 miles between August 2024 and 2025. This low usage typically reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain, though it increases the risk of rubber-based components degrading due to age rather than friction. A physical inspection should focus on the front suspension geometry, given the history of failures. The vehicle failed in July 2023 at 46,797 miles due to leaking front shock absorbers and worn brake components, followed by a failure in August 2024 at 52,422 miles regarding worn Macpherson strut pins and bushes. A buyer must verify that there is no residual fluid weeping from the shock absorbers and check for play in the front suspension mounts to ensure the previous repairs were durable and not merely temporary fixes.
