2018 Vauxhall Corsa 1.4L Petrol · RO68 EFV

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following a recent suspension-related failure. While the most recent test on 11 August 2025 at 24,879 miles resulted in a failure due to a fractured offside front coil spring, this was rectified immediately to allow for a pass with no further defects recorded. This indicates that the previous owner responded to safety-critical faults once they were identified, maintaining a clean record in the preceding years. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,110 miles per year. Between the September 2022 test at 13,143 miles and the 2024 test at 21,602 miles, the car covered roughly 8,459 miles over two years. This low usage suggests light commuting, which typically reduces mechanical wear on the engine and gearbox, though low-mileage cars can sometimes suffer from degradation of rubber components and surface corrosion on brake discs due to lack of regular use. A buyer should inspect the front suspension in person to ensure the replacement coil spring has seated correctly and that no other components show signs of perished rubber or play. Given the low mileage, the inspector should check the brake discs for pitting or thinning, as these often occur on vehicles that sit for long periods. The history shows no recurring structural issues or exhaust emission failures, suggesting the chassis has remained well-preserved despite its limited road life.
