2012 Vauxhall Insignia 2.0L Diesel · FH12 UAR

The Vauxhall Insignia presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 21 August 2025 at 137,714 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior annual tests in 2023 and 2024 also passed cleanly. The only blemish is a failed test on 20 August 2024 at 113,822 miles, reversed the next day at 113,825 miles with no defects listed, which points to an administrative or minor pre-check issue rather than a mechanical fault. Annual mileage sits at roughly 9,800 miles, typical for a 2012 car. The record shows 94,028 miles on 14 November 2022, then 96,538 on 22 August 2023, 113,825 by August 2024, and 137,714 by August 2025. The jump of nearly 24,000 miles between August 2024 and August 2025 is above the long-term average and suggests heavier use in the final year. No long standing gaps appear; tests were completed yearly with the 2022 date delayed to November. The clean advisory history gives no flagged corrosion, suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust issues across the timeline. A buyer should still inspect structural integrity underneath for rust given the age, check coil springs and binding calipers for wear from the higher recent mileage, and verify the 2024 failure cause with the prior owner. The same-day reversal implies no lasting defect, but physical confirmation of tyres and consumables remains sensible.
