2018 Vauxhall Adam 1.4L Petrol · DV18 AFN

The 2018 Vauxhall Adam presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 17 May 2025 at 36,806 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior pass on 21 May 2024 at 28,744 miles also showed a clean sheet. A failed test on the same date in May 2024 recorded no defects, indicating an administrative or unclassified rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Across the full history from 27 August 2022 through to 2025, the vehicle avoided any advisories or listed component wear. The recorded mileage reflects light use for an eight-year-old car. It covered 20,564 miles by 27 August 2022, rose to 25,100 miles by 29 August 2023, then 28,744 miles by May 2024, and reached 36,806 miles by May 2025. That averages roughly 4,600 miles per year. The gap between the August 2023 and May 2024 tests is shorter than the usual twelve months, but the mileage increase stayed low. Sparse entries and zero advisories mean the record gives little evidence of neglected consumables, though long stationary periods implied by low annual use can hide perished rubber or seized calipers not caught in a static test. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection focused on suspension bushes, brake discs, and underbody corrosion given the car's age and likely periods of disuse. Check the front coil springs and steering joints for cracking or play. Verify the exhaust emissions system and tyre sidewalls for age-related degradation rather than tread loss. The clean MOT history offers reassurance, but low mileage alone does not confirm mechanical freshness.
