2013 Vauxhall Insignia 2.0L Diesel · FG63 OAB

The 2013 Vauxhall Insignia presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 14 November 2025 at 117,695 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three preceding annual tests from November 2022 through November 2024 also passed clean. The only blemish is a fail on 11 November 2022 at 108,972 miles, reversed ten days later at 108,992 miles with no defects listed, which points to a paperwork or retest anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. Annual mileage sits at roughly 9,053 miles, typical for a thirteen-year-old vehicle. The records show steady accumulation: 108,992 miles in November 2022, 112,048 in November 2023, 114,652 in November 2024, and 117,695 in November 2025. Gaps are absent; the owner kept the test cycle annual and consistent. The clean sheets across four years suggest routine servicing and no neglected consumables or structural issues reaching the advisory threshold. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the car's age and mileage. The MOT history flags no corrosion or exhaust emissions concerns, yet DVSA tests capture only visible defects at the time. Verify the 2022 fail-and-retest sequence with the seller to confirm no suppressed repair, and check underneath for subframe rust that a clean MOT does not exclude. Given the sparse but clean record, the Insignia shows no worsening trend and reflects an owner who maintained test compliance. Treat the absence of advisories as reason for confidence, not a substitute for a pre-purchase mechanical check.
