2010 Vauxhall Corsa 1.2L Petrol · LM10 KTT

The Vauxhall Corsa presents as roadworthy following the most recent test on 13 February 2026 at 55,877 miles, where the tester recorded no defects. The maintenance trend is stable, with the three most recent passes showing clean sheets. A single failed attempt on 12 February 2026 at 55,875 miles is anomalous, as the record lists no defects; the vehicle passed the next day with identical mileage, suggesting an administrative or process error rather than a mechanical fault. The same pattern appears on 28 March 2025, when a failed entry at 53,593 miles with no defects preceded a pass on the same day at the same mileage. At sixteen years old, the Corsa shows 55,877 recorded miles, an average of roughly 3,492 miles per year. The odometer moved from 49,138 miles at the 22 March 2024 test to 53,593 miles by March 2025, then to 55,877 miles by February 2026. Annual use stayed below 3,500 miles across both intervals. Low mileage of this order often means long standing periods, which can allow corrosion to develop on brake discs, suspension components, and underbody structure even when the MOT shows no advisories. The DVSA history flags no advisories on suspension bushes, coil springs, brake calipers, exhaust emissions, or structural integrity across any entry. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection beneath the vehicle, as a clean MOT does not capture incipient rust on sills or subframes. The repeated same-day fail-and-pass pairs with zero defects imply clerical anomalies at the testing station rather than owner neglect, though the 2026 gap of one day between entries warrants confirmation that the V5C and test certificate align.
