2009 Vauxhall Insignia 1.8L Petrol · KS59 OCN

The vehicle presents a clear roadworthiness verdict for the current year 2026, falling into the "acceptable but requiring inspection" category. The MOT record demonstrates a consistent maintenance trend that is stable rather than worsening, as all recent tests have passed with no critical failures. However, the most recent test on 2025-12-01 at 71,354 miles was passed, indicating that the vehicle has maintained a safe roadworthiness level for the past three years. The mileage pattern shows a significant gap between the most recent test and the vehicle's age, with only 4,197 miles recorded in the last 17 years. This sparse mileage data suggests the owner may have experienced minimal driving or long periods of inactivity, which could reflect a lack of regular maintenance or a shift in driving habits. The lack of rapid mileage accumulation makes the vehicle appear to be in good condition regarding wear on consumables, though the data is insufficient to confirm the absence of hidden issues. Given the recurring faults and the high mileage gap, a buyer should inspect the vehicle for structural integrity and mechanical components. The history reveals critical issues including corrosion on the front and rear sub-frames, which may compromise the suspension and chassis structure, as well as significant oil leaks that could indicate internal engine problems. Furthermore, the front brakes show signs of wear, particularly pitting or scoring on the disc, which may indicate a need for replacement. The exhaust flexi also deteriorates, suggesting potential issues with the exhaust system. A professional inspection is required to assess the structural integrity of the suspension and the condition of the drivetrain before proceeding with a purchase.
