2014 Vauxhall Insignia 2.0L Diesel · MR12 AHC

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2026-01-26 recorded a pass at 168,796 miles, though a failed result was also noted on the same date with no defects listed. Subsequent tests from 2023 to 2025 show consistent passing with no recorded faults, indicating a stable maintenance trend. The absence of critical issues in these tests suggests the car has been kept in roadworthy condition, though the recent failed entry raises questions about potential unresolved concerns. The vehicle’s mileage of 168,796 miles over 12 years equates to an average of 14,066 miles annually, which is notably high. The gap between the 2023 test (150,755 miles) and 2024 (153,017 miles) was minimal, but the jump to 159,792 miles by 2025 and 168,796 miles in 2026 reflects accelerated usage. This pattern may indicate increased wear on components such as suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs, particularly given the lack of recorded advisories for these areas. A buyer should prioritize inspecting the drivetrain, exhaust system, and corrosion in body panels, as high mileage often exacerbates these issues. The absence of defects in MOT records does not eliminate risks, as some wear—like binding calipers or minor structural fatigue—may not trigger immediate failures. A thorough check of brake discs, suspension components, and underbody rust is essential to confirm the vehicle’s continued reliability.
