2012 Vauxhall Insignia 2.0L Diesel · EY12 FBB

This Vauxhall Insignia is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 31 March 2026 at 140,711 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean certificates over the last three years, suggesting the vehicle is being kept in a condition that meets minimum legal standards. The mileage is typical for a 14 year old vehicle, averaging roughly 10,051 miles per year. The distance covered between the March 2024 test at 115,588 miles and the March 2025 test at 128,683 miles shows a steady usage pattern of approximately 13,000 miles annually. The most recent interval from March 2025 to March 2026 saw a further increase to 140,711 miles, confirming the car remains in active use rather than sitting idle. The MOT record is unusually clean for a vehicle of this age and mileage. There are no recorded advisories for common Insignia failure points such as suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake disc corrosion. The two recorded failures in March 2024 and March 2026 were resolved on the same day, which typically indicates minor administrative errors or quick-fix consumables rather than deep-seated mechanical failures. A buyer should still perform a physical inspection of the chassis and wheel arches for structural corrosion, as the MOT record does not explicitly detail the absence of rust. Given the 140,711 mile odometer reading, checking the service history for timing belt and water pump replacements is essential. The lack of flagged brake or suspension issues in the DVSA data is positive, but a manual check for oil leaks or drivetrain vibration is advised due to the high cumulative mileage.
