2013 Vauxhall Insignia 2.0L Diesel · FP13 OPT

The Vauxhall Insignia presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 9 April 2025 at 145,837 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, though the same date also shows a failed attempt with no defects listed, a likely administrative anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. Prior tests in January 2024 at 136,831 miles, December 2022 at 125,864 miles, and December 2021 at 110,059 miles all passed cleanly. The vehicle shows no recurring advisories or worsening condition across the record. Mileage has accumulated at a typical rate for a 2013 car, around 11,200 miles per year. The gap between the December 2021 test at 110,059 miles and the December 2022 test at 125,864 miles shows roughly 15,800 miles covered, while the jump to January 2024 at 136,831 miles is lower at about 11,000 miles. A longer gap then appears before the April 2025 test at 145,837 miles, adding only 9,000 miles over fifteen months. The DVSA history is sparse but clean, with no flagged wear on tyres, brakes, or suspension across the timeline. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion given the car is thirteen years old. The MOT record never listed exhaust emissions issues, worn suspension bushes, or binding calipers, yet testers may have missed early-stage rust on sills or subframes. Check brake disc thickness and coil springs for fatigue that a pass with no defects would not capture. The absence of advisories suggests previous owners kept basic upkeep current, but the April 2025 fail with no defects recorded warrants confirmation the logbook matches the DVSA entry. Verify service history alongside this clean MOT trail before purchase.
