2008 Vauxhall Corsa 1.6L Petrol · DY08 FMM

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed the most recent MOT on 6 March 2026 at 122,563 miles with no recorded defects. A single failure on 28 March 2022 was followed by a pass the following month, indicating that the issue was remedied and the maintenance trend is stable. Mileage averages roughly 6,800 miles per year for an 18‑year‑old car, which sits within normal usage parameters. Between the 7 March 2025 test (119,838 miles) and the 6 March 2026 test the odometer rose by 2,725 miles, a typical annual accumulation. The modest increase of only 549 miles between the 29 March 2023 and 7 March 2025 tests suggests periods of light use or possible storage, but no abrupt spikes are evident. A prospective buyer should examine tyre tread depth and uniformity, as consumable wear is not reflected in the MOT record. Inspect suspension components—bushes, coil springs, and any signs of leaking shock absorbers—for play or corrosion. Verify brake discs and pads for even wear and confirm that the earlier failure was not related to brake performance. A visual check of the exhaust system and underside for rust or structural damage will ensure no hidden deterioration remains.
