2009 Vauxhall Insignia 2.0L Diesel · FN59 XMR

The Vauxhall Insignia shows a current roadworthy status following a pass on 9 December 2021 at 148,461 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable on paper as no defects were logged at that test. The record is sparse, offering only a failed test on 8 December 2021 at 148,460 miles with no defects recorded, then a clean pass one day later at 148,461 miles. This pattern suggests an administrative or procedural failure rather than a mechanical fault, and the subsequent pass indicates the vehicle met requirements at that time. The odometer stood at 148,461 miles at the December 2021 tests, equating to roughly 8,733 miles per year since the 2009 registration, which is typical for a vehicle of this age. No intermediate entries exist between 2021 and the current date of 8 July 2026, leaving a four-and-a-half-year gap with unknown mileage accumulation or testing. The single-mileage increase between the two December 2021 tests shows negligible use in that window, but the absence of any MOT data since then means the present mechanical condition cannot be confirmed from this history. A buyer should commission a fresh MOT and physical inspection before purchase, given the lapse since the last recorded test. Although the 2021 pass cited no advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or corrosion, a 17-year-old Vauxhall at this mileage warrants close checks for structural rust, worn suspension components, and binding calipers that may have developed during the untested period. The clean record provides no recurring fault trend to track, yet the age and standing time imply consumable items such as tyres and wiper blades likely require renewal regardless of prior results.
