2014 Vauxhall Insignia 2.0L Diesel · VE14 SNK

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile with a recent pass in October 2025 at 131,687 miles. While the most recent test flagged both nearside and offside front tyres as being worn close to the legal limit or worn on the edges, the vehicle has consistently passed its inspections over the last several years. The absence of major mechanical or structural failures in the most recent two years suggests the car is being maintained to a functional standard, despite the recurring advisory for tyre wear. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 11,000 miles per year. The data shows steady usage, moving from 72,403 miles in June 2019 to 131,687 miles in October 2025. There are no significant gaps in the testing history that would suggest long periods of inactivity, which helps mitigate concerns regarding seized components or perished rubber seals often found in low-usage vehicles. A prospective buyer should pay close attention to the suspension and tyre management. The December 2022 test at 107,360 miles identified corroded nearside and offside rear coil springs, a common issue on this model. Although these were rectified for the subsequent pass, the recurrence of tyre wear advisories in 2019, 2022, and 2025 suggests a pattern of running consumables close to their limit. This could indicate infrequent tyre replacement or potential issues with wheel alignment. Physical inspection of the suspension bushes and shock absorbers is recommended to ensure no further degradation has occurred since the coil spring issues were noted. Given the recent front tyre advisories, checking the alignment and the condition of the steering components would be a prudent step to ensure even wear and prevent premature replacement of new tyres.
