2021 Vauxhall Corsa Elite NAV Premium Turbo 1.2L Petrol · SL71 TPY

The most recent MOT on 2025-10-09 confirmed the vehicle passed with two minor issues: rear brake discs showing wear, pitting, or scoring (but not seriously weakened) and a front tyre with a shallow cut not reaching the ply. These were similar to the 2024-10-24 MOT, which also noted rear brake disc wear (including lipping) and a rear service brake binding issue that was not excessive. The recurring pattern involves brake disc condition and a single tyre defect. Both MOTs highlight brake disc wear without critical failure, suggesting gradual deterioration rather than sudden damage. The 2024 issue with brake binding was not repeated in 2025, but the continued mention of disc wear indicates a persistent, low-level concern. No new safety-critical faults were recorded in the latest test. The vehicle’s mileage of 15,828 miles over five years equates to roughly 3,166 miles annually, which is low for its age. This could imply infrequent use or periods of inactivity, which may affect components like brakes (if not regularly used) or rubber parts (if stored long-term). However, the MOT history does not confirm such issues beyond the documented brake and tyre findings. The trend in faults appears stable, with no escalation in severity.
