2014 Vauxhall Corsa 1.2L Petrol · NA14 KVT

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend following a period of reactive repairs. The most recent test in September 2025 at 79,788 miles passed with no defects, indicating that the owner addressed the issues identified in September 2024 when the car failed due to a lagging nearside front brake and a worn offside front brake pad. This transition from a failure to a clean pass suggests the current owner is attending to safety-critical faults once they are flagged. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-to-moderate usage profile, averaging approximately 6,650 miles per year over its 12-year life. There is no evidence of rapid, erratic accumulation or significant gaps in testing; for instance, the car covered roughly 8,000 miles between the 2022 and 2023 tests, and another 8,000 miles between the 2023 and 2024 tests. This steady progression suggests the vehicle has not sat for long periods, which generally helps prevent the degradation of rubber components and brake caliper seizing. A buyer should pay close attention to the front suspension and braking system, as the history shows recurring issues in these areas. The tester flagged a fractured offside front coil spring at 41,466 miles and brakerelated failures at 71,775 miles. While these appear to be resolved, an in-person inspection should check for signs of uneven wear on the tyres or any play in the front suspension bushings. Additionally, the 2023 advisory regarding edge wear on the front tyres suggests the vehicle may have suffered from poor alignment previously, which should be verified to ensure the current set is tracking correctly.
