2012 Vauxhall Insignia 2.0L Diesel · FP12 BGY

The Vauxhall Insignia presents a stable roadworthiness trend with a clean pass at the most recent test on 2023-08-05 at 176,676 miles. The DVSA record shows three consecutive passes with no defects recorded across 2021, 2022, and 2023, indicating no worsening or recurring advisory issues during that window. Relative to the current date of July 2026, the last test is nearly three years old, so the vehicle has since run an unknown distance without a recorded examination. Mileage sat at 164,258 on 2021-07-14, rose to 169,372 by 2022-08-09, and reached 176,676 at the final 2023 test. That equates to roughly 5,100 miles between the first two entries and 7,300 over the next year, well below the implied annual average of 12,620 for the vehicle's life. The sparse three-entry history shows no rapid accumulation or glaring gaps, but the low recent use against a 176k lifetime suggests the prior owner curtailed driving before disposal. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the car's fourteen-year age and high total mileage. The MOT data flagged no corrosion or structural integrity concerns, yet standing time since August 2023 can conceal perished rubber components or binding calipers unseen by the last tester. Verify the true odometer reading and confirm no unrecorded mileage has been added post-2023. Check exhaust emissions and tyre condition in person, as these consumables fall outside the historic advisories but degrade with age regardless of prior test cleanliness.
