2015 Vauxhall Corsa 1.2L Petrol · GK15 TXF

The vehicle remains roadworthy under the latest MOT on 18 February 2026 at 76,731 miles, but the tester flagged front brake discs in poor condition and evidence of an oil leak, indicating a deterioration from the clean 2025 test. The recurrence of oil‑related comments each year and the emergence of brake wear suggest a modestly worsening maintenance trend rather than a stable one. Mileage has risen to 76,731 miles over eleven years, averaging roughly 6,970 miles per annum, which sits comfortably within normal usage for a 2015 Corsa. The record shows a steady climb from 51,742 miles in February 2022 to 55,338 miles in March 2023, then to 59,397 miles in February 2024, before a sharper rise to 68,553 miles in March 2025 and 76,731 miles in February 2026. The latter two intervals, each adding over 8,000 miles in under twelve months, point to a period of increased utilisation that may accelerate wear on consumables. A prospective buyer should give particular attention to the front braking system; the poor‑condition discs reported in 2026 warrant a visual inspection and measurement of disc thickness, while the thin pads noted in 2023 may indicate ongoing wear. The persistent oil‑leak advisory, present from 2022 through 2026, should be traced to its source – likely a valve cover gasket or oil separator – and confirmed as non‑excessive. Rear tyres, flagged for slight cracking in every test since 2022, need close examination for tread depth and sidewall integrity. The damaged dust‑cover on both front track‑rod ends recorded in 2024 suggests possible exposure of the ball joints; checking for play in the front suspension and the condition of surrounding bushings is advisable. Ensuring no emerging rust or structural corrosion completes the in‑person assessment.
