2019 Vauxhall Corsa Griffin S/S 1.4L Petrol · FB18 FMB

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a recent decline in proactive care. While the most recent test in June 2025 at 40,715 miles passed, the tester identified several advisory-level defects that were absent in previous years. This indicates a shift from the clean record seen in 2024, suggesting that components are now being run to the point of failure rather than being replaced during scheduled intervals. The mileage profile is consistently low for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,800 miles per annum. There is a significant jump in usage between the 2022 test at 9,201 miles and the 2023 test at 17,254 miles, representing nearly 8,000 miles in just eleven months. However, the usage accelerated further with 12,559 miles covered between July 2024 and June 2025. This recent activity correlates with the appearance of mechanical wear noted in the latest report. A buyer must specifically inspect the front braking system, as the 2025 record flagged front brake discs as worn, pitted, or scored. This condition often results from the vehicle sitting for extended periods, allowing corrosion to etch the metal surface. The recurring issue of front tyres wearing close to the legal limit and showing uneven edge wear in both 2023 and 2025 further suggests a pattern of neglecting basic consumable maintenance. A physical inspection of the suspension geometry is advised to explain the consistent edge tyre wear on the front axle.
