2016 Vauxhall Corsa 1.4L Petrol · G26 TAY

The Vauxhall Corsa holds a valid roadworthy certificate after the 24 February 2026 MOT pass at 57,742 miles, with the tester logging no defects. The maintenance trend is stable across the recorded history, but the 20 February 2026 failure at 57,709 miles shows no listed defects, an irregularity suggesting an administrative omission or unrecorded fault. Every annual test before that returned a clean pass. Mileage progression confirms light use for a ten-year-old vehicle. The 8 February 2023 examination at 44,103 miles, the 6 February 2024 test at 45,887 miles and the 31 January 2025 test at 49,456 miles each added fewer than 4,000 miles yearly. The rise to 57,742 miles by February 2026 equates to roughly 8,300 miles over the interval, a modest increase yet still below typical averages. The record displays no testing gaps and indicates the previous owner kept to annual scrutiny. Absence of advisories or defects across all five tests means no recurring mechanical or structural faults appear in the official data. A buyer should still arrange a physical inspection of components prone to age-related degradation that MOT tests may miss early. The inspecting technician must check suspension bushes and coil springs for perished rubber, assess brake discs and calipers for binding after likely standing periods, and examine subframe and sills for corrosion. The unexplained February 2026 failure requires the selling party to produce the original test paperwork. Verify structural integrity and exhaust emissions align with the subsequent pass to rule out latent defects behind the clean current certificate.
