2014 Vauxhall Adam 1.2L Petrol · FV14 COU

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test on 19 August 2025 at 65,425 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following an initial failure on the same day. This suggests that any mechanical or safety issues identified were immediately rectified by the owner. The lack of advisories across the last three passes indicates that the vehicle has remained in good operational condition. The mileage pattern is notably low for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,450 miles per year. Data shows a steady progression from 60,029 miles in August 2023 to 63,442 miles in August 2024, and another 1,983 miles leading to the 2025 test. This consistent, low-impact usage suggests short-distance trips which typically result in less wear on the drivetrain and engine components. However, low-mile vehicles can sometimes suffer from dry seals or fluid degradation if stationary. Despite the clean MOT history, a buyer should conduct a physical inspection focusing on the degradation of rubber components, such as suspension bushes and tyre sidewalls which can perish from age rather than distance. Given the low mileage, check the brake discs for signs of surface corrosion or binding calipers that occur when vehicles are not frequently used. The structural integrity of the chassis should also be verified to ensure that age has not introduced significant surface rust in areas that the MOT tester has not yet flagged.
