2010 Vauxhall Corsa 1.4L Petrol · KT52 THO

The Vauxhall Corsa’s most recent MOT history, spanning November 2022 to November 2025, demonstrates a stable roadworthiness trend with no recurring defects or advisories. The November 2025 test—just six months ago—confirmed the vehicle passed without failings, despite the unusual dual entry on the same date (likely a retest after a minor administrative oversight). There is no evidence of worsening mechanical issues, though the absence of advisories in prior tests means potential wear on high-friction or high-stress components may not have been formally noted. The lack of corrosion-related failures in recent years suggests the underbody and wheel arches have been reasonably well-maintained, though this cannot be confirmed without physical inspection. Mileage progression indicates typical usage for a vehicle of this age, with 117,828 miles recorded over 16 years—an average of around 7,364 miles annually. The most notable pattern is the consistent 8,000-mile increments between tests, suggesting regular servicing or at least adherence to the annual MOT cycle. There are no extended gaps or abrupt mileage spikes that would raise concern for neglected maintenance or aggressive driving. However, the recorded mileage does not account for periods before 2022, so earlier service history remains unverified. Given the clean MOT record, a buyer should prioritise a thorough inspection of suspension components—particularly the coil springs, bushes, and shock absorbers—given the vehicle’s age and mileage. The brakes, though never failed, may show uneven wear or binding calipers, especially if the vehicle has been driven hard or stored with flat tyres. Exhaust emissions were not flagged, but a visual check for leaks or excessive smoke during acceleration is advisable. Structural integrity should be assessed for corrosion, particularly around the sills, wheel arches, and subframe, as this is often not captured in MOT tests. Finally, the dual November 2025 entries warrant confirmation that no underlying issues were overlooked during the retest.
