2013 Vauxhall Adam 1.4L Petrol · EV13 BOV

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the most recent MOT results. The October 2025 test at 61,439 miles returned a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a successful inspection in September 2024 at 56,514 miles, indicating that previous issues have been addressed and the vehicle is currently maintaining a clean compliance record. The mileage accumulation is notably low for a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,726 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage patterns between 2023 and 2025, with the vehicle covering roughly 4,000 miles between each annual inspection. While the low mileage suggests lighter mechanical wear on the drivetrain and suspension components, the intermittent failures recorded in August 2023 and September 2024 suggest that the vehicle may have sat idle for periods or required minor corrective maintenance to meet standards. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection focusing on the components that likely caused the previous failures. Since the 2023 and 2024 failures occurred within a single mile of each other, they likely involved minor consumable items such as wiper blades, bulbs, or tyre tread depth rather than significant mechanical failures. You should specifically check for any signs of uneven tyre wear or suspension bushing degradation, which can occur even in low-mileage cars that spend significant time stationary. Given the recent clean history, the structural integrity and braking system appear sound according to official records. However, because the vehicle has covered relatively few miles, it is prudent to inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion and ensure the battery and rubber seals are in good condition. The current trend suggests a well-maintained vehicle that has successfully moved past its recent minor compliance issues.
