2014 Vauxhall Insignia 2.0L Diesel · FL64 ADZ

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2026-02-24 at 152,904 miles recorded a pass with no defects, but a conflicting fail entry at the same date and mileage complicates the assessment. Earlier tests from 2024-03-05 and 2025-02-24 showed similar pass/fail pairs with no recorded issues, suggesting potential data inconsistencies. Despite this, the absence of defects in the latest valid test implies the vehicle remains roadworthy, though the maintenance trend lacks clarity due to repeated ambiguous results. The mileage of 152,904 miles, accumulated over 12 years, averages 12,742 miles annually—significantly higher than typical usage. A sharp increase from 126,656 miles (2024-03-05) to 136,893 miles (2025-02-24) reflects a 10,237-mile rise in 11 months, followed by a 16,011-mile jump to 152,904 by 2026-02-24. Such rapid accumulation accelerates wear on components like suspension bushes, brake discs, and drivetrain elements. The sparse MOT history, with only five entries over 12 years, offers limited insight into long-term maintenance practices. A physical inspection should prioritise suspension components, particularly coil springs and bushings, given the high mileage. Brake systems, including calipers and discs, warrant scrutiny for uneven wear or corrosion. Structural integrity checks are advised, as rapid mileage can mask rust or fatigue in chassis areas. The lack of recorded defects does not eliminate risks associated with age and usage, so a qualified mechanic’s evaluation is essential before purchase.
