2016 Vauxhall Corsa 1.4L Petrol · DV66 VDP

The vehicle presents as a fundamentally roadworthy example with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 15 September 2025 at 81,494 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded. This followed a failure just five days prior at 81,483 miles, though the record indicates no specific defects for that failure, suggesting either an administrative error or a minor-related issue that was rectified immediately before the retest without indicating a systemic mechanical failure. The mileage pattern is consistent with a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,150 miles per annum. Between September 2022 at 57,707 miles and September 2023 at 66,279 miles, the car covered 8,572 miles, followed by an interval of 6,892 miles leading the April 2024 test at 73,171 miles. This steady rate of use suggests short-term operation which is generally beneficial for maintaining seals and brake components, preventing the corrosion often associated with long periods of inactivity. While the MOT history shows no recurring advisories regarding structural integrity or mechanical wear, a buyer should still perform a physical inspection of components prone to age. Given the age of the vehicle, check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking or fatigue, as these often degrade regardless of low mileage. Examine the brake discs for pitting or uneven wear, as the MOT record does not detail the thickness of the pads or the state of the calipers.
