2017 Vauxhall Insignia 1.4L Petrol · DV17 LUT

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a consistently stable and clean maintenance history. The most recent test conducted on 5 June 2025 at 45,409 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This continued streak of clean passes across the last five tests suggests that the previous owners maintained the vehicle to a high standard, avoiding the mechanical or structural failures common in cars of this age. The mileage pattern is notably low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,045 miles per year. Data shows a period of very limited use between March 2022 and July 2022, where the car covered only 274 miles in four months. Since the July 2022 test, the accumulation has remained steady, with roughly 2,400 miles in the 2023 period and 3,248 miles in the following year. This low mileage typically implies less wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it can occasionally indicate that the vehicle has sat stationary. Because the MOT record shows no recurring faults regarding suspension bushes, brake components, or corrosion, a buyer should focus on the risks associated with low-mileage, long-term storage. Inspect the tyres for sidew cracking or perished rubber, which occurs regardless of tread depth when driven infrequently. You should also verify the brake discs for surface rust or pitting, as infrequent use can prevent the calipers from cleaning the rotors effectively. The absence of structural rust advisories suggests the chassis remains sound, but a physical check of the underbody is still advisable to confirm no hidden corrosion has developed between tests.
