2008 Vauxhall Corsa 1.2L Petrol · SB08 AEK

The Vauxhall Corsa presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 25 June 2025 at 115,807 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the available record. The tester logged no defects at that test. A same-day failure on 25 June 2025 at identical mileage preceded the pass, yet the DVSA entry shows no recorded defects for either attempt, which points to an administrative or documentation issue rather than a mechanical fault. The vehicle cleared every other examination without advisory or failure entries. Mileage sits at a plausible 6,434 per year for an 18-year-old car. The odometer moved from 107,920 miles on 29 December 2022 to 111,485 miles on 4 November 2023, then to 115,807 miles by June 2025. That equates to roughly 3,565 miles over eighteen months after the 2023 test, a gentle accumulation that suggests light, infrequent use. The record is sparse and clean, with no consumable wear or structural corrosion flagged at any stage. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the car's age and low annual use, as standing periods accelerate rubber perishing and surface corrosion unseen by the MOT lane. The twin 2022 and 2025 same-day fail-then-pass pairs with zero defects warrant a check of the V5C and test certificates to confirm no omitted fault data. Verify exhaust emissions and underbody structural integrity in person, since the history offers no evidence of concern but cannot evidence absence of hidden rust.
