2012 Vauxhall Corsavan 1.2L Diesel · FN12 NNT

The Vauxhall Corsavan presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 20 June 2025 at 116,651 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the three prior annual tests from May 2022 to May 2024 also passed cleanly. The single failure on 26 May 2023 at 97,424 miles is anomalous: the DVSA record shows no defects listed against that test, and the vehicle passed on the same day at the same mileage, indicating an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Recorded mileage rose from 84,116 in May 2022 to 116,651 by June 2025, an average of roughly 8,300 miles per year across the period. That figure sits in line with typical use for a 2012 light van. The gap between the May 2024 test at 106,233 miles and the June 2025 test at 116,651 miles shows only 10,418 miles covered in just over thirteen months, confirming steady rather than accelerated wear. The MOT history is sparse and clean, with no advisories logged for tyres, brakes, suspension bushes, corrosion, or exhaust emissions at any stage. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the unbroken pass record. Absence of advisories does not certify component condition; at 116,651 miles and fourteen years old, the Corsavan's coil springs, suspension arms, and brake discs will carry age-related fatigue not captured by a pass result. Structural integrity around sills and chassis mounts warrants close checks for rust given the vehicle's age. The clean test sequence implies previous owners kept basic statutory compliance current, though the lack of recorded advisories suggests minimal detailed scrutiny rather than confirmed component renewal. Verify service history and inspect tyre tread depth, wiper function, and underbody condition before purchase.
