2014 Vauxhall Corsa 1.2L Petrol · FN64 XNX

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend indicates a reactive approach to repairs rather than proactive prevention. The most recent test in July 2025 at 46,729 miles showed a pass but revealed multiple minor defects related to tyres and suspension components. While the car has passed its consecutive tests, the recurring appearance of steering and lighting related faults suggests that the previous owner only addressed mechanical issues when they threatened to cause an MOT failure. At 46,729 miles over 12 years, this Corsa shows significantly low mileage, averaging approximately 3,900 miles per year. This low usage profile often reduces mechanical wear on the engine but can lead to the degradation of rubber components and seals. Between July 2023 at 28,331 miles and July 2024 at 37,267 miles, the vehicle covered nearly 9,000 miles, which represents a notable spike compared to its annual average but explains the brake disc wear noted during that subsequent test. A buyer should inspect the front suspension closely, as the nearside track rod end ball joint dust cover was flagged in both 2024 and 2025. Persistent deterioration of these boots can lead to premature failure of the joints if not replaced. The offside rear shock absorber showed oil misting in 2023, which should be monitored now to ensure the leak has not progressed into a full failure. Additionally, the nearside front outer tyre was reported as worn near the legal limit in the latest test, indicating potential alignment issues or simply the end of its service life.
