2016 Vauxhall Corsa 1.2L Diesel · LS57 RAM

This Vauxhall Corsa presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 30 June 2025 at 108,493 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to 2022, suggesting the vehicle has been kept in a condition that meets minimum legal standards without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage accumulation is consistent with the age of the vehicle, averaging roughly 10,849 miles per year. A notable increase in usage occurred between 3 July 2023 and 7 July 2022, where the odometer rose from 82,858 to 98,225 miles, representing a jump of over 15,000 miles in one year. Since then, the annual mileage has stabilised, with 3,579 miles added between July 2024 and June 2025. The absence of advisories across multiple years is uncommon for a ten-year-old vehicle and suggests either a proactive replacement of consumables or a very lenient testing regime. While the record shows no failures for suspension bushes, brake discs, or structural corrosion, a buyer should still manually inspect the underbody for rust. The 2024 record shows a fail and pass on the same day, though no specific defects were listed, which often indicates a minor administrative error or a quick on-site fix. Given the mileage now exceeds 100,000, a physical inspection should focus on drivetrain wear and suspension components that typically degrade at this interval. Check for play in the steering rack and the condition of the coil springs. Verify the service history for timing belt or chain maintenance, as the MOT record only confirms roadworthiness and does not document essential engine lubrication or belt intervals.
