2017 Vauxhall Corsa 1.4L Petrol · DV67 OKM

The Vauxhall Corsa’s most recent MOT, conducted on 2025-07-14 at 108,795 miles , confirms it remains roadworthy with no defects recorded. The test history since 2022 shows a consistent pattern of annual passes without advisories or failures, suggesting the vehicle has undergone regular servicing and minor maintenance to meet MOT standards. However, the duplicate entry for 2024-07-03 —where the car is listed as both failed and passed at the same mileage—indicates a potential administrative error rather than a mechanical issue, though this should prompt verification of the record’s accuracy. The recorded mileage of 108,795 miles over nine years equates to an average of 12,088 miles annually , which is elevated for a vehicle of this age. The gap between the 2022-09-29 test at 72,966 miles and the 2023-07-21 test at 83,632 miles —a span of just eight months—suggests either a period of higher usage or delayed servicing. There are no obvious signs of neglect in the MOT history, but the consistent mileage accumulation implies wear on high-usage components like brakes, suspension, and drivetrain should be closely examined. Given the lack of recorded defects, the primary focus for an in-person inspection should centre on brake system integrity , particularly the rear calipers and discs, as binding or uneven wear is not explicitly ruled out by the MOT. The suspension—including coil springs, bushes, and dampers—should be checked for uneven sagging or excessive play, especially given the mileage. Corrosion around wheel arches, sills, and the subframe is also worth assessing, as this model is prone to structural rust in high-exposure areas. Finally, the exhaust system and emissions control components (catalytic converter, oxygen sensors) should be inspected for leaks or degradation, as these are common failure points in higher-mileage Corsas. The absence of advisories does not preclude underlying issues, so a thorough mechanical check is advisable.
