2016 Vauxhall Corsa 1.4L Petrol · VN66 ACJ

The 2016 Vauxhall Corsa is presently roadworthy, as the latest MOT conducted on 20 February 2026 at 74,313 miles was passed with no defects recorded. The alternating pass/fail entries on the same date suggest a re‑test after minor remedial work, but the consistent absence of defects across the 2024‑2026 series indicates a stable maintenance record. Mileage has risen from 58,159 miles in the January 2024 test to 74,313 miles in the February 2026 test, an increase of roughly 16,154 miles over 25 months, or about 7,700 miles per year, which aligns with the vehicle’s age of ten years and the typical annual mileage for its class. No extended periods of low mileage are evident, and the progression is steady without abrupt jumps that would imply long standing. A buyer should therefore inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, verify that the rear brake calipers are not binding, examine the condition of the brake discs for scoring or corrosion, and look for any structural rust around the wheel arches and chassis rails. Although the MOT history shows no recorded failures, a physical check of the exhaust system for corrosion and the tyre tread depth is advisable, as these components often reveal issues not captured in the test.
