2012 Vauxhall Insignia 2.0L Diesel · DY12 XFT

The Vauxhall Insignia shows a currently roadworthy status following the December 2023 pass at 84,417 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded period. The most recent test on 14 December 2023 passed with no defects logged, though it followed a same-day failure on identical mileage that also recorded no defects, indicating an administrative or presentation issue at the test centre rather than a mechanical fault. Prior tests in January 2023 and February 2022 also passed cleanly, suggesting no ongoing deterioration in core systems. Mileage accumulation has been modest for a 2012 vehicle, rising from 68,330 miles at the February 2022 failure to 70,245 by January 2023, then jumping to 84,417 by December 2023. That equates to roughly 6,030 miles per year overall, with the final year showing about 14,000 miles of use, the only period of above-average accumulation. The record is sparse, containing only five entries across two years, and all passes and the anomalous failure carry no advisories or defects, leaving little granular wear data. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, and underbody corrosion given the car's fourteen-year age and the absence of any advisory history to confirm those items remain sound. The repeated same-day fail-pass at 84,417 miles warrants checking the DVSA test certificate authenticity and confirming no suppressed defect entries exist. Without recorded advisories across the timeline, previous keepers appear to have presented the car in acceptable condition, but the lack of flagged consumable wear such as tyres or wiper blades may simply reflect test-centre leniency rather than confirmed component health.
