2016 Vauxhall Insignia 1.6L Diesel · SW08 RYL

This vehicle currently maintains a clean roadworthiness profile, with the most recent MOT conducted on 5 November 2025 at 115,599 miles resulting in a pass with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is exceptionally stable, as the last three annual inspections have yielded clear certificates without a single advisory notice. This consistent performance indicates that the vehicle has been subjected to diligent upkeep and that the mechanical components are currently meeting all required safety standards. The vehicle has accumulated 115,599 miles over its ten-year lifespan, averaging approximately 11,560 miles annually, which aligns with typical usage expectations for a car of this class. A minor administrative anomaly occurred on 27 October 2022 at 74,461 miles, where the vehicle failed its initial test, though it successfully passed the following day with no defects logged. Aside from this brief interruption, the history shows a steady and predictable progression of mileage without evidence of long-term storage or periods of neglect. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on high-wear areas that often escape notice during standard MOT testing. While the recent history is clean, the current mileage suggests that suspension bushes, ball joints, and shock absorber seals may be nearing the end of their effective service life. Inspect the brake discs and pads for signs of thinning or uneven wear, as these are common consumables for an Insignia at this mileage. Check the underside of the vehicle for any early signs of corrosion on the subframes or brake lines, as these areas can deteriorate despite a clean test result. Confirm that the engine runs smoothly at idle and check for any evidence of oil leaks around the rocker cover or turbocharger housing, as these are frequent points of failure for this specific powertrain.
