2015 Vauxhall Corsa 1.2L Diesel · SW15 UGZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on January 8 2026 at 119,393 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable but reveals a consistent pattern of immediate failure followed by successful re-testing. In both 2025 and 2026, the car failed the initial test only a few days before passing. This suggests that the previous owner only addressed specific mechanical defects when prompted by an official test failure rather than performing proactive preventative maintenance. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical usage for an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,854 miles per year. Between the January 2024 test at 112,480 miles and the January 2025 test at 114,790 miles, the car covered only 2,310 miles, indicating a period of low-intensity use. However, the mileage increased by 4,603 miles in the final year leading up to the January 2026 test, showing a return to a more standard driving pattern. A buyer must conduct a physical inspection of the specific components that caused the recent failures, as the record does not specify the exact defects for the 2025 and 2026 declines. Given the high mileage and age, focus scrutiny on the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers where common wear occurs on this model. Additionally, check for structural corrosion on the sills and exhaust mounting, as these areas are frequent points of failure on Vauxhall vehicles of this age bracket.
