2015 Vauxhall Insignia 2.0L Diesel · FP15 RYK

The Vauxhall Insignia presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 2 July 2025 at 127,486 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable, though the test history shows a repeated pattern of initial failure followed by prompt retest and pass, which we examine below. No advisories or worn consumables appear across the five entries, indicating the car cleared each examination on the second attempt without outstanding mechanical concerns. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical 11,590 miles per year for an 11-year-old vehicle. The record shows 113,151 miles on 18 June 2024, then a jump to 124,418 miles by 14 June 2023, an apparent reversal that suggests a data anomaly or unrecorded prior test rather than true backward clocking. From June 2024 to July 2025 the car covered 14,335 miles, a modest annual rate. The sparse, clean record gives little basis to suspect neglected consumable replacement, though absence of advisories does not confirm component condition. The buyer should note the twin failure-pass pairs on 13 to 14 June 2023 and 25 to 2 July 2025, where the tester logged no defects yet issued failures. This points to administrative or documentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical fault, but the buyer must verify the V5C and test certificates match. With no flagged suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or corrosion, a standard pre-purchase inspection of structural integrity and exhaust emissions remains prudent given the mileage. Given the high but ordinary mileage and clean defect history, previous owners appear to have maintained basic test compliance. The recurring same-day or near-day retests imply the car was presented for MOT without prior fault correction needed, suggesting reasonable upkeep rather than deferred maintenance.
