Our Verdict
Proceed with caution due to high mileage
Given the 128,038 miles on the clock, a comprehensive service history is essential. You should verify when the major service intervals were completed, as high-mileage small engines require strict adherence to oil and filter changes to maintain efficiency. Use the high mileage as a primary point for price negotiation, as this vehicle has covered nearly double the average annual mileage of similar models.
Check for any evidence of recent repairs following the February 2026 MOT failure. Ensure that the track rod end issue was fully resolved rather than just patched, as suspension components on high-mileage vehicles often wear in clusters.
The 999cc engine is designed for economy, offering low fuel consumption and typically falling into a lower insurance group, making it affordable for new drivers or city commuters. Annual road tax for this engine size and year is generally modest.
However, maintenance costs may be higher than average for a 2015 model due to the high mileage. You should budget for more frequent replacement of wear-and-tear items such as tyres, brake pads, and suspension components. The estimated annual running cost, including fuel, tax, insurance, and maintenance, is approximately £1,100-£1,400.
Pay close attention to the suspension and steering. The MOT history specifically flags a failed track rod end dust cover in 2026 and oil misting on the offside front shock absorber in 2024; check for any current leaks or knocks when driving over uneven surfaces.
Inspect the tyres and brakes carefully. While the 2023 MOT noted worn tyres and thin rear brake pads, you should confirm these have been replaced. Additionally, check the headlamps and exhaust system, as these are identified as top failure reasons for the Corsa model across aggregate data.
This 2015 black Vauxhall Corsa features a 999cc petrol engine and has recorded 128,038 miles. The MOT history shows a recent failure in February 2026 for a track rod end dust cover, following a series of passes that included advisories for shock absorber misting and worn tyres and brakes. It represents a high-mileage example of a common city car.
The Vauxhall Corsa has an average MOT pass rate of 76.2%, with common failure points including headlamps, coil springs, and exhausts.
