2018 Vauxhall Insignia 2.0L Diesel · SA18 ADZ

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-12-19 at 106,288 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend. Previous tests from 2024-12-09 (100,617 miles) and 2023-12-20 (91,770 miles) also passed without issues, suggesting consistent upkeep. However, the duplicate 2024-12-09 entry shows both a pass and a fail at the same mileage, which may reflect administrative error or unresolved minor faults. No structural corrosion, brake system failures, or suspension issues were flagged in the record, supporting the conclusion of roadworthiness. The vehicle’s mileage of 106,288 miles over eight years equates to an average of 13,286 miles annually, exceeding typical usage for its age. This high accumulation rate increases wear on consumables like tyres and brake pads, though no such defects were recorded. MOTs spaced approximately 12 months apart provide a clear but limited snapshot, with no gaps in coverage. The absence of advisories or failures in recent tests implies the previous owner prioritized routine checks, though the 2024-12-09 inconsistency warrants verification. A buyer should inspect the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, common in high-mileage vehicles, and check brake discs for uneven wear or corrosion. The drivetrain and exhaust components should also be evaluated for signs of stress from prolonged use. While the MOT record shows no critical issues, the vehicle’s age and mileage suggest potential hidden wear in non-MOT-covered areas. A pre-purchase inspection should focus on these components to confirm the vehicle’s mechanical integrity beyond the recorded tests.
