2012 Vauxhall Meriva Active Turbo 1.4L Petrol · IFZ 8786

The Vauxhall Meriva presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 7 February 2026 at 108,689 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior tests show the same clean outcome. No advisories or failures appear across the available history, indicating the vehicle has not required corrective work within the recorded period. Annual mileage sits at roughly 7,764 miles, which is typical for a 2012 car of this type. The records show 92,206 miles in October 2022, then 96,564 in January 2024, 102,178 in March 2025, and 108,689 in February 2026. The gap between the 2022 and 2024 entries spans about fifteen months yet adds only 4,358 miles, suggesting a period of light use. From 2024 onward the annual increments stay near 5,500 to 6,500 miles, a consistent and unremarkable pattern for consumable wear. The absence of flagged items means no recurring suspension bushes, coil spring, brake disc, or corrosion issues are on file. A clean MOT sequence of this length implies previous owners kept basic upkeep current rather than deferring known faults. That said, the test record alone cannot confirm the true condition of unseen components. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection beneath the sills, subframe, and suspension mounts for structural rust not always caught at test. Verify the timing belt and turbo servicing history, as the 1.4 turbo unit demands scheduled interval changes. Check brake caliper freedom and tyre sidewall condition in person despite the clean advisories.
