Our Verdict
A sensible choice for those seeking a mo
When viewing this specific 1.4L petrol Corsa, pay close attention to the tyres. The MOT history shows advisories for cracking or perishing tyres in both 2024 and 2026, as well as wear issues in 2023. Ensure that the four tyres currently fitted are not only legal but also free from age-related cracking.
Negotiate based on the recent MOT advisories. Since the 2026 test noted both nearside and offside rear tyres were perishing, check if these have been replaced since the test. Additionally, verify the service history to see if the brake pad wear noted in 2023 was addressed through a standard service or a specific repair.
As a 1398cc petrol engine, this Corsa typically sits in a moderate insurance group and tax band suitable for urban and suburban driving. Fuel economy for this engine variant is generally efficient for a small hatchback.
Maintenance costs for this model tend to be predictable, though you should budget for regular consumable replacements like tyres and brake pads, which have appeared in the MOT history. An estimated annual running cost for this vehicle is approximately £1,100-£1,400, depending on your annual mileage and insurance profile.
Focus your inspection on the tyres and wheels. The MOT history specifically flags 'cracking or perishing' on the rear tyres in 2024 and 2026, suggesting a pattern of deferred tyre replacement. Check the sidewalls of all four tyres for any signs of dry rot or structural damage.
Secondly, inspect the braking system. The 2023 MOT recorded front brake pads wearing thin. While this is a standard wear item, you should check the thickness of the pads and the condition of the discs. Finally, given the aggregate data for this model, it is worth checking the condition of the headlamps and suspension components like coil springs and ball joints, which are common failure points for the Corsa range.
This 2018 white Vauxhall Corsa has covered 54,281 miles since its registration in June 2018, which is relatively low for its age. The MOT history shows five recorded tests, with the most recent pass in June 2026. While the vehicle has passed all tests, there are recurring advisories regarding tyre condition and brake wear.
Aggregate data for this model shows a 76.2% average MOT pass rate, with common failures relating to headlamps, coil springs, and ball joints.
