2014 Vauxhall Corsa 1.4L Petrol · TM07 WLM

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history indicates a trend of reactive rather than proactive care. The most recent test on July 10, 2025 at 96,718 miles showed a failure due to a fractured nearside front coil spring and worn tyres. While the car passed after repairs, the presence of four tyres worn to the legal limit and a broken suspension component suggests the owner only addresses faults when they cause an MOT failure rather than performing routine preventative maintenance. The mileage pattern is consistent with a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,000 miles per year. Between July 2023 at 75,520 miles and July 2024 at 85,979 miles, the car covered roughly 10,000 miles, showing a slight increase in usage during that period. The overall mileage remains relatively low, but the age of the vehicle increases the likelihood of degradation of rubber components and metalwork, which aligns with the issues noted in the inspection record. A buyer must specifically inspect the structural integrity of the front sub-frame, which the July 2025 test flagged for corrosion. Although not yet weakened to a failing point, rust on load-bearing structures progresses over time. Close attention should also be paid to the suspension system; the history shows a track rod end failure in 2024 and a broken coil spring in 2025, indicating the suspension components are reaching the end of their service life. The persistent TPMS light remains an unresolved issue that should be checked for a faulty sensor or a slow leak.
