2016 Vauxhall Insignia 2.0L Diesel · FP66 OAM

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean record of passes over the last four years. The most recent test on 7 February 2025 at 99,191 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the car failed a test two days prior on 5 February 2025, the record lists no specific defects for that failure, which often suggests a clerical error or a minor administrative issue rather than a mechanical breakdown. The mileage accumulation is consistent with the age of the vehicle, averaging roughly 9,919 miles per year. The distance covered between 20 May 2022 at 76,330 miles and 21 April 2023 at 85,146 miles shows a steady usage pattern of approximately 8,800 miles in a year. A slight increase in usage occurred between April 2023 and May 2024, where the odometer rose by 12,114 miles. The absence of advisories across multiple years is uncommon for a ten year old Insignia. This suggests a proactive approach to maintenance or a vehicle that has been spared harsh environments. However, the lack of recorded wear on consumables like brake discs, pads, and suspension bushes at nearly 100,000 miles is unusual. A buyer should physically inspect the underbody for corrosion and check the condition of the coil springs and tyre tread depths. Since the MOT history provides no clues regarding recurring faults, focus the physical inspection on common model weaknesses. Check for any signs of oil leaks from the engine bay and verify the smooth operation of the electronic parking brake. Given the current date of 25 July 2026, the vehicle is now overdue for its annual MOT, meaning its current roadworthiness cannot be guaranteed without a fresh inspection.
