2016 Vauxhall Corsa 1.4L Petrol · LP65 CCA

The Vauxhall Corsa presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 30 June 2025 at 71,458 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior annual tests from 2022 to 2024 also passed cleanly. No advisories or recurring mechanical faults appear across the history, indicating consistent upkeep rather than deferred repairs. The recorded mileage of 71,458 at the 2025 test equates to roughly 7,146 miles per year since the 2016 registration, which sits within typical use for a ten-year-old supermini. The owner logged 57,117 miles on 18 August 2022, then 63,264 by 4 October 2023, 67,562 on 27 September 2024, and 71,458 by June 2025. The progression shows steady, low annual accumulation with no abrupt jumps or long dormant periods. The sole anomaly is a failed entry on 18 August 2022 at 57,117 miles with no defects listed, immediately followed by a pass on the same date, suggesting an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical defect. Given the clean MOT lineage, a buyer should still commission a physical inspection of consumable items not always captured at test: brake disc wear, suspension bushes, and exhaust corrosion. The absence of advisories means the tester found no measurable wear at each visit, but components such as coil springs and binding calipers can degrade between annual tests. Prospective owners should verify service history to confirm fluid changes and timing belt interval, as the MOT only assesses statutory roadworthiness. The vehicle's low mileage implies lighter mechanical stress, yet standing periods can accelerate rubber perishing and structural rust on sills or subframes.
