2006 Vauxhall Corsa 1.2L Petrol · NG56 KBP

The Vauxhall Corsa presents a broadly stable roadworthiness picture, with the most recent test on 15 November 2021 at 139,816 miles returning a pass with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is steady rather than worsening, though the owner allowed the prior test on 12 November 2021 at 139,815 miles to lapse into a failure with no defects logged, a clerical or presentation anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. At twenty years old the vehicle shows no escalating advisory pattern across the five-year record. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical rate for the age, around 6,991 miles per year. The records move from 129,379 miles on 24 November 2018 to 133,183 on 29 November 2019, then 136,198 on 7 November 2020, and 139,816 by 15 November 2021. That is roughly 3,400 to 4,000 miles added annually, with no rapid accumulation or unexplained gaps. The clean pass sheet across every yearly test suggests the previous keeper kept basic consumables and emissions within limits. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's age and 139,816 miles. The MOT history flags no corrosion or structural integrity issues, yet twenty years of service can hide fatigue not captured in a pass result. Verify the exhaust emissions and check for binding calipers during a road test. The sparse, defect-free record implies reasonable upkeep but offers no insight into intermittent faults. Inspect underneath for rust on sills and subframes, and confirm tyre tread depth and wiper condition before purchase.
