2012 Vauxhall Corsa 1.2L Petrol · FP12 BFU

The Vauxhall Corsa presents as roadworthy following its most recent test on 9 February 2026 at 119,741 miles, where it passed with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable across the available history, with three consecutive annual passes and no advisories or mechanical faults flagged at any stage. The record shows a clean trajectory with no worsening conditions or recurring defect patterns. Annual mileage averages 8,553 against the vehicle's 14-year life, a typical figure for a 2012 supermini. The odometer moved from 92,340 miles at the February 2024 test to 110,863 miles in February 2025, then to 119,741 by February 2026. That equates to roughly 18,500 miles in year one and 8,900 in year two, indicating a front-loaded usage spike followed by lighter running. The sparse record shows only three test years, with no intermediate entries to reveal shorter-term wear cycles. Two failed tests appear on the same dates as the passes, both at 9 February 2026 and 10 February 2025, yet the DVSA data records no defects against either failure. This points to administrative or documentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical rejection. A buyer should still verify the V5C and test certificate to confirm the failures were clerical and not suppressed fault entries. No suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions problems appear in the history. Given the age and 119,741 miles, a physical inspection should nonetheless check subframe rust, tyre sidewall condition, and handbrake travel, as these consumables fall outside MOT advisory capture when within limits.
