2010 Vauxhall Insignia 2.0L Diesel · ML60 GWZ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, maintaining a consistent record of passes despite its age. The most recent test on 3 November 2023 at 144,314 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following a failure just one day prior at 144,289 miles. This suggests a minor issue was identified and immediately rectified, indicating a proactive approach to maintaining legal compliance. Given the current date of June 2026, the vehicle is now significantly overdue for its annual test, which necessitates an immediate inspection to ensure no mechanical degradation has occurred in the interim. The mileage pattern aligns with typical expectations for a sixteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,000 miles per year. Between October 2021 and October 2022, the car covered 11,061 miles, while it clocked another 10,728 miles between October 2022 and November 2023. This consistent usage profile suggests regular road use rather than long periods of standing, which is generally beneficial for seals and rubber components. The lack of large gaps in mileage accumulation reduces the risk of dry-rot failures that often occur when older vehicles remain stationary for extended durations. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity and suspension components, as these are common areas of wear for the Insignia platform. While the record shows no recurring advisories, the high mileage warrants a close look at control arm bushes and coil springs for signs of fatigue. One should also check the brake system for any signs of excessive corrosion or binding calipers. Since the vehicle has not been tested in over two and a half years, thorough check of fluid levels and the condition of tyres is essential to confirm the car remains sound since its last recorded pass.
