2007 Vauxhall Vectra SRI Cdti 150 1.9L Diesel · PT02 AND

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a clean pass on June 10, 2025 at 154,436 miles. However, the immediate history reveals a period of significant instability earlier in that year. The car failed two consecutive tests in April and early June 2025 before finally meeting the standard, suggesting a reactive approach to mechanical maintenance. While the most recent result indicates the vehicle is currently compliant, the trend shows faults were addressed only when necessary rather than through a proactive preventative schedule. At 154,436 miles over 19 years, the vehicle averages approximately 8,128 miles per year, which aligns with typical UK usage for a diesel estate of this age. The data shows a distinct cluster of activity between January 2024 and June 2025, where the car covered roughly 6,200 miles in 14 months. This relatively low mileage combined with the multiple failures in 2025 suggests the vehicle may have been used for short trips or sat, which often leads to accelerated degradation of rubber components and braking systems despite the low total annual mileage. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the chassis and suspension components. Given the age and specific model of this Vectra, priority should be given to structural corrosion on the subframe, sills, and rear mounting points. The repeated failures in early 2025 indicate that items such as suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake lines were reaching their service limit. Inspect for signs of binding calipers or heavily pitted brake discs, as these are common points of failure on vehicles that undergo frequent MOT testing in short intervals.
