2008 Vauxhall Corsa 1.4L Petrol · FB57 CKX

The vehicle is currently in a stable roadworthy condition. The most recent MOT test on 30 December 2025 at 40,265 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of passing subsequent tests throughout 2024 and 2025, suggesting the car is mechanically sound according to DVSA standards. The mileage is exceptionally low for a 2008 model, averaging roughly 2,237 miles per year. Between 14 February 2024 and 30 December 2025, the odometer increased by only 1,458 miles. Such low usage often indicates the vehicle has spent significant periods stationary. While this preserves the engine and interior, long periods of inactivity can lead to perished rubber components and fluid degradation. The MOT history is unusually clean, showing no recorded defects or advisories across several years. The failures on 14 February 2024 and 24 February 2025 were resolved on the same day, though the record provides no technical detail on what those faults were. This lack of data means there is no documented history of suspension wear, brake corrosion, or structural rust. A buyer should prioritize a physical inspection of the braking system and tyres. Low-mileage cars frequently suffer from binding calipers or brake disc corrosion due to disuse. Check the tyre date codes to ensure the rubber has not hardened with age, even if the tread depth remains legal. Inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking, as rubber components often fail from age rather than mileage.
