2009 Vauxhall Meriva 1.4L Petrol · KY09 FVH

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate from 2026, indicating that the most recent inspection was completed on the 19th January 2026 at 74,566 miles with no recorded defects. This test date is approximately 1.5 years prior to the current date, placing the MOT within a stable maintenance window where the vehicle has not yet experienced a recurring failure. The test was passed for the entire mileage range tested, confirming that the mechanical system remains sound and that the vehicle is currently roadworthy. The mileage pattern is characterized by a steady accumulation of 4,386 miles per year, which is consistent with the vehicle's age of roughly 17 years. This rate is considered low for a vehicle of that age, suggesting that the owner may have maintained the car with minimal usage or that the mileage is derived from a specific use pattern rather than widespread wear. While the mileage is relatively low, it does not preclude the accumulation of wear on consumables or components like suspension bushings or brake discs, which could lead to issues if the vehicle is driven frequently. Given the clean MOT and the low mileage, the vehicle appears to have a stable mechanical condition. However, the absence of defects in the most recent test does not guarantee that all components are functioning correctly, as the history shows a lack of defects in the 2024 and 2023 tests. The only recurring fault recorded is a non-working nearside stop lamp, which is a minor consumable issue. The lack of defects in the 2023 test suggests that the vehicle has undergone adequate upkeep, but the owner should inspect the suspension, brakes, and exhaust system for signs of rust, binding calipers, or structural integrity to assess the true risk of future failure.
