2013 Vauxhall Insignia 2.0L Diesel · FP13 OSE

The Vauxhall Insignia presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 23 February 2026 at 183,400 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the four prior annual tests back to August 2021 each passed cleanly with no advisories raised. The vehicle shows no worsening pattern and no recurring mechanical faults across the five-year record. Mileage stands at 183,400 against a 2013 build, averaging roughly 14,100 miles per year. The August 2021 test logged 145,067 miles; by August 2022 the car reached 158,791, then 171,228 in August 2023, 177,137 in October 2024, and 183,400 in February 2026. Accumulation is steady with no abrupt jumps or dormant gaps, though the total is high for the age and points to sustained motorway or commuter use rather than short local trips. The clean MOT history gives no flagged items for suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, calipers, or structural corrosion. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of those components given the mileage, as wear at this distance often escapes the MOT threshold until failure. Examine underside for rust, check steering joints and wishbone bushes for play, and measure remaining life on brake friction parts and tyres. Previous keepers kept the car to a test-pass standard without deferred defects. That suggests basic servicing was maintained, but the absence of advisories at 180,000 miles means consumables were likely changed only at failure point. Budget for imminent suspension and drivetrain refresh based on age and distance covered.
