2017 Vauxhall Corsa 1.4L Petrol · GK17 NFJ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT test in January 2026 at 66,582 miles with no recorded defects. This indicates an improving trend in maintenance following a period of reactive repairs. The transition from a failed test in early 2024 to a clean sheet in 2026 suggests the current owner has addressed previous mechanical and safety concerns identified by the tester. The mileage pattern is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,400 miles per year. The data shows steady usage, with 13,738 miles covered between January 2023 and 2024, and another 8,709 miles between January 2024 and January 2025. This regular interval suggests the car has not suffered from long periods of stagnation, which often helps prevent rubber components and seals from prematurely degrading despite the age of the vehicle. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front suspension and braking given the history of recurring issues. The 2024 failure highlighted a leaking nearside front shock absorber and deteriorated track rod end dust covers. While these appear to have been rectified, the buyer should check for continued fluid weeping on the shock absorber strut or play in the steering linkage. Additionally, the 2025 record noted multiple tyres with uneven wear and inner-edge thinning, which often points to an alignment issue that should be verified to prevent premature replacement of new tyres.
