2013 Vauxhall Corsa 1.2L Petrol · DY13 FAM

The most recent MOT on 29 September 2025 recorded a pass at 78,769 miles, indicating the vehicle meets the statutory roadworthiness criteria at present. With four consecutive passes and no recorded defects, the maintenance trend appears stable rather than deteriorating. Mileage has risen from 63,727 miles in September 2022 to 78,769 miles in September 2025, an average increase of roughly 5,000 miles per year. Over a thirteen‑year lifespan this equates to about 6,000 miles annually, which aligns with typical usage for a vehicle of this age. The incremental mileage between each test – 3,857 miles between 2022 and 2023, 5,034 miles to the 2024 test, and 6,151 miles to the 2025 test – shows a consistent, moderate accumulation without abrupt spikes or prolonged idle periods. Although the MOT records list no failures, a prospective buyer should still examine wear items that are not captured by the test. Inspect tyre tread depth and sidewall condition, verify that brake pads and discs are free of glazing or excessive wear, and feel for any play in the front suspension bushes or coil springs. A visual check for corrosion around the wheel arches, undercarriage, and chassis joints is prudent, as rust can develop between tests. Confirm that exhaust emissions are within limits by observing any unusual smoke or odors, and ensure that all lighting, wiper blades, and windscreen washer functions operate correctly. Given the clean MOT history, the car appears mechanically sound, but a thorough in‑person assessment of consumables and potential hidden corrosion will provide the buyer with confidence that no latent issues have been missed.
