2011 Vauxhall Insignia 2.0L Diesel · J400 ABC

The Vauxhall Insignia presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 17 April 2025 at 65,012 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, following an anomalous failure on the same date and mileage that listed no defects, a clear DVSA administrative duplicate rather than a mechanical fault. Prior tests in April 2024 at 57,895 miles, May 2023 at 51,020 miles, and April 2022 at 43,972 miles all passed clean. The vehicle shows no recurring advisories or escalating wear across the five-year record. Recorded mileage sits at 65,012 against a 2011 build, an average of roughly 4,334 miles per year. The gap between the 2022 test at 43,972 miles and the 2023 test at 51,020 miles added 7,048 miles, the largest single-year movement; subsequent years dropped to 6,875 and 7,117 miles respectively. Low overall distance for the age implies lighter use, though the clean record gives no evidence of long-standing corrosion or deferred consumable replacement. Sparse entries with zero advisories limit insight into suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake disc condition between tests. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion given the car's fifteen years. The MOT history never flagged exhaust emissions, binding calipers, or tyre tread, yet testers record only visible defects at test time. Verify the brake discs, suspension arms, and subframe for rust that low annual mileage and outdoor storage can conceal. Confirm the 17 April 2025 failure with no defects was a data error, not a withheld certificate. Request the V5C and any service invoices to corroborate the 65,012-mile odometer. Absent documented servicing, treat the clean MOT as a baseline only, not proof of proactive upkeep by prior owners.
