2016 Vauxhall Meriva 1.4L Petrol · LD66 CNE

The 2026‑01‑06 MOT at 84,324 miles passed without any defects, confirming that the vehicle remains roadworthy and that the maintenance record shows a stable trend with no worsening faults. The mileage has risen steadily from 56,685 miles in September 2022 to 84,324 miles in January 2026, averaging roughly 8,400 miles per year, which aligns with the typical usage for a ten‑year‑old Vauxhall Meriva; the intervals between tests are regular, with only a modest increase in annual mileage in 2025 and a short six‑month gap before the latest inspection. A buyer should therefore focus on the mechanical components that commonly show wear despite an unblemished MOT: suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking or corrosion, brake discs and calipers for scoring or binding, and the chassis for rust particularly around the wheel arches and underbody. Although no defects were recorded, the age and mileage suggest that tyre tread depth, wiper blade condition, and exhaust emission levels merit close visual and functional checks. Given the consistent pass rate and the absence of recorded advisories, the vehicle appears well‑maintained, but a thorough pre‑purchase inspection covering the aforementioned items is advisable to verify that routine wear has not escalated into structural or safety‑critical defects.
