2011 Vauxhall Corsa 1.2L Diesel · FN61 RVL

The Vauxhall Corsa presents as roadworthy following the most recent test on 10 October 2025 at 102,431 miles, where the tester recorded no defects and issued a pass. The maintenance trend is stable, with every annual examination clearing the vehicle once minor re-tests were completed. No advisories or mechanical faults appear across the full history, indicating the car has not required corrective work for emissions, suspension, brakes, or structural corrosion during the recorded period. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a 2011 registration, rising from 96,114 miles at the 12 October 2023 test to 98,391 miles by 14 October 2024, then to 102,431 miles by 10 October 2025. That equates to roughly 3,300 miles between the 2023 and 2024 tests and 4,040 miles across the following year, both below the 6,829 annual average implied by the lifetime figure. The sparse record shows only three pass cycles and two immediate fail-then-pass turns, with the failures on 9 October 2025 and 14 October 2024 listing no defects, suggesting administrative or presentation issues at initial submission rather than mechanical rejection. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of consumable items not captured by a clean MOT, given the car is fifteen years old. The tester noted no worn suspension bushes, corroded subframes, or failing coil springs, but age-related deterioration of brake discs, exhaust hangers, and door sills can escape detection between annual tests. Verify the condition of tyres, wiper blades, and underbody rust protection before purchase. The repeated same-day fail and pass entries without recorded defects imply the previous keeper addressed whatever omission triggered the first attempt promptly. This pattern reflects compliant ownership rather than deferred maintenance, though the absence of advisories means the buyer cannot rely on the record to flag emerging wear. A pre-sale check of structural integrity and drivetrain leaks remains prudent.
