2007 Vauxhall Corsa 1.2L Petrol · SJ07 UBF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history indicates a reactive rather than proactive approach to repairs. While it passed its most recent test in December 2025 at 67,288 miles, it had failed just three days prior. This failure identified imbalanced rear brakes across the axle, insufficient washer fluid, and a perishing offside rear inner tyre. The recurrence of the washer fluid and tyre issues across multiple tests suggests the owner only addresses faults when strictly necessary to pass the MOT test. At 19 years old, the recorded mileage of 67,288 miles represents a low average of approximately 3,541 miles per year. This low usage often leads to the degradation of rubber components and seals rather than mechanical wear. The data shows a significant gap of 7,641 miles between November 2023 and November 2024, followed by another 5,401 miles in the subsequent year. These periods of relatively low use likely explain the cracking and perishing of the tyre sidewall noted in the later inspections. A buyer must conduct a close inspection of the underside to assess the general corrosion noted in the December 2025 report. Given the vehicle's age and low mileage, structural integrity is the primary concern as rust can progress rapidly on stationary cars. The braking system also requires scrutiny, as the record shows worn front discs in 2024 and an axle imbalance in late 2025. Ensure the windscreen washer system is fully functional and that all light bulbs are operational, as these have been recurring points of failure for this specific car.
