2010 Vauxhall Corsa 1.0L Petrol · FM10 EJV

The Vauxhall Corsa presents a stable roadworthiness trend with a clean pass recorded on 1 December 2025 at 86,256 miles. The DVSA entry shows a failed test on the same date and mileage with no defects listed, which points to an administrative or non-mechanical rejection rather than a fault-based failure. Across the five most recent tests from 5 December 2022 through to the latest pass, the vehicle cleared every examination with no advisories or recorded defects. Annual mileage sits low for a 2010 registration. The car covered 65,982 miles at the 5 December 2022 test, rose to 72,361 miles by 6 December 2023, then 79,080 miles on 12 November 2024, and reached 86,256 miles by 1 December 2025. That averages roughly 5,400 miles per year. The gaps between tests are consistent at around twelve months, with no sudden accumulation or prolonged dormancy visible in the record. The clean sheet across all entries suggests either careful storage or light domestic use. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion given the vehicle's sixteen-year age. The MOT history flags no suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, or exhaust emissions concerns, yet test stations vary in scrutiny. Check for binding calipers and worn tyres that a no-defect pass might overlook on a low-mileage older car. Previous keepers appear to have maintained basic statutory compliance, with the same-day fail and pass indicating prompt correction or clerical resolution. No recurring mechanical trend emerges from the data. The absence of advisories across four years implies reasonable upkeep, though in-person checks on dampers and subframe rust remain prudent before purchase.
