2021 Vauxhall Corsa SE 1.2L Petrol · SH71 UPR

The vehicle remains in a roadworthy condition as evidenced by its most recent MOT pass on 2 May 2026. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car progressed through its inspections in 2024 and 2025 without recorded defects. While the latest test introduced minor advisories regarding tyre condition, the lack of previous mechanical or structural failures suggests the vehicle has been maintained to acceptable standards. At 39,018 miles over five years, the Corsa averages approximately 7,800 miles per annum, which aligns with typical UK usage for a modern small hatchback. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with a 3,700-mile interval between December 2024 and May 2025, and a similar gap between the most recent tests. This steady mileage accumulation reduces the likelihood of premature stress wear on the drivetrain and suspension components compared to high-mileage vehicles. The primary concern identified in the May 2026 test involves perishing or cracking on both nearside and offside rear tyres. Given the vehicle's low mileage, this likely indicates age-related rubber degradation or periods of standing rather than heavy tread wear. A buyer should inspect the sidewalls for deep fissures and check if the tyres require immediate replacement to ensure structural integrity of the rubber. Since the record shows no history of brake corrosion or suspension failure, the physical inspection should focus on standard consumables. Verify the condition of the brake pads and check the suspension bushes for signs of tearing that were not flagged by the tester. The clean history from 2024 onwards suggests a sound mechanical foundation, provided the rear tyres are addressed as per the latest advisory.
