2016 Vauxhall Corsa 1.4L Petrol · LT66 AEE

The Vauxhall Corsa presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 14 August 2025 at 114,430 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The August 2025 pass came only three days after a failure on 11 August 2025 at 114,429 miles where the tester logged no defects, and an identical pattern occurred in July 2024 with a fail on 31 July at 104,300 miles followed by a pass on 7 August 2024 at 104,315 miles. These back-to-back fail-pass pairs with no recorded defects suggest administrative or presentation issues at the test centre rather than mechanical faults, and no advisories or wear items were flagged at any stage. The mileage rose from 94,011 at the July 2023 test to 104,315 by August 2024, then to 114,430 by August 2025, equating to roughly 10,300 to 10,400 miles per year. This sits close to the typical expectation for a 2016 vehicle and shows no rapid accumulation or unexplained gaps across the three-year span. The recorded history is sparse and clean, with no corrosion, suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or exhaust emissions concerns raised by any tester. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity and consumable components given the car is now ten years old with over 114,000 miles. The absence of advisories across five tests is unusual and may reflect lenient testing rather than a flawless vehicle, so check for worn tyres, wiper blades, and binding calipers that could have been overlooked. Pay particular attention to underbody corrosion and suspension condition, as these are common on high-mileage Vauxhall Corsas and would not show in a defect-free record.
