Our Verdict
This 2018 Vauxhall Corsa presents a mixe
When viewing this Corsa, check the paper or digital service history to see how frequently maintenance has been carried out alongside the annual MOT tests. Negotiate on price if the front brake discs and suspension arm bushes noted in the April 2026 test have not yet been replaced. Ensure all electrical features, particularly the tyre pressure monitoring system which failed in 2025, are operating correctly.
Fuel economy for the 1.4-litre petrol engine is generally reasonable for everyday commuting and urban driving. Insurance groups for this generation of Corsa tend to be relatively modest, keeping policy costs accessible for younger or newer drivers. Typical maintenance costs should factor in common Corsa wear items such as coil springs, brakes, and suspension components, bringing the estimated annual running cost to around £1,100-£1,300.
Pay close attention to the front suspension components, specifically checking for wear on the suspension arm pins or bushes flagged in the April 2026 test. Inspect the front brake discs, which have generated advisories or failure points in 2025 and 2026, to determine if replacement is immediately necessary. Additionally, examine all four tyres for cracking or perishing, noting the tyre wear history seen on previous tests.
This white 2018 Vauxhall Corsa with a 1398cc petrol engine shows a recorded mileage of 62,285 miles as of April 2026. The vehicle's MOT history reveals failures in both 2025 and 2026, including a fractured offside front coil spring, parking brake inefficiency, and recurring front brake disc wear. Although it ultimately secured passes after rectification, the presence of these repeat issues and current advisories requires careful scrutiny.
The Vauxhall Corsa has an average MOT pass rate of 76.2% across nearly a million recorded tests, with headlamps, coil springs, and exhausts serving as the most frequent failure points.
