2015 Vauxhall Corsa 1.2L Petrol · RF65 ABV

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-11-13 at 36,613 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable roadworthiness status. However, the preceding test on 2025-11-06 at the same mileage resulted in a fail, though no defects were logged. This suggests potential administrative or procedural issues rather than mechanical concerns. Subsequent tests from 2024-10-24 (28,342 miles) and 2023-11-13 (20,607 miles) both passed without defects, reinforcing that the car has maintained compliance. The pattern of passing and failing without recorded faults implies inconsistent testing outcomes rather than systemic mechanical decline. The vehicle’s mileage of 36,613 miles at 11 years old equates to approximately 3,328 miles annually, significantly below the UK average for its age. This low usage could indicate infrequent operation or prolonged periods of inactivity, which may affect components like the battery, tyres, and fluid systems. Notably, the MOTs from 2023-11-13 and 2023-11-10 occurred just three days apart, both at 20,607 miles, with one fail and one pass. Such proximity raises questions about the consistency of testing but does not reveal recurring mechanical issues. The absence of defects in most tests suggests the car has been well-maintained, though the low mileage warrants scrutiny of long-term storage effects. A buyer should physically inspect the vehicle for signs of corrosion, particularly in the underbody and wheel arches, given the low mileage and potential for stagnant fluids. Check the suspension components, including bushes and coil springs, for wear, as infrequent use can lead to stiffness or degradation. Verify the brake system, including calipers and discs, for binding or uneven wear, as these can develop during periods of inactivity. While the MOT history shows no critical failures, the lack of detailed defect reports means a hands-on assessment is essential to confirm the car’s condition beyond recorded tests.
