Our Verdict
A sensible choice for those seeking a lo
When inspecting this specific 1.4L petrol Corsa, your primary focus should be on the tyres. The MOT history shows a repeated advisory for 'Tyre slightly damaged/cracking or perishing' on both rear tyres in 2023, 2024, and 2025. Ensure that the current set of tyres is not only legally treaded but also free from age-related cracking, as this has been a recurring theme for this vehicle.
Beyond the tyres, check the service history to see if the 1398cc engine has received regular oil changes. Given the low mileage, you should also verify that the car has been used for more than just very short trips, as long periods of sitting can lead to the tyre perishing noted in previous tests. Negotiate on the price if the tyres are due for replacement immediately.
The 1.4L petrol engine is generally positioned in a moderate insurance group and tax band, making it suitable for newer drivers or budget-conscious commuters. Fuel economy for this engine size in a Corsa is typically efficient for urban and suburban driving.
Maintenance costs for this model are generally predictable, though you should budget for periodic replacements of items like brake pads or bulbs. Based on the current mileage and vehicle age, an estimated annual running cost of £1,100-£1,400 should cover fuel, tax, insurance, and routine maintenance.
Specifically address the tyre advisories seen in the 2023, 2024, and 2025 MOT tests. Inspect the sidewalls of both rear tyres for any signs of cracking or perishing, as this has been a documented issue for this registration.
Additionally, while not flagged in this vehicle's specific history, aggregate data for this model suggests checking the headlamps, coil springs, and ball joints, as these are common failure points across the wider Corsa population. Ensure the red paintwork is free from significant chips that could lead to corrosion, and check that all lights are functioning correctly to avoid the headlamp issues common to this model type.
This 2016 Vauxhall Corsa (VU66HAE) presents with 54,700 miles, which is significantly lower than the model average of 5,753 miles per year for its age. The MOT history shows a consistent pass record over the last five years, with the most recent test in June 2026 showing no defects. While there have been recurring advisories regarding rear tyre condition, the vehicle has avoided major mechanical failures in its recorded history.
Aggregate data for the Vauxhall Corsa shows a 76.2% MOT pass rate, with common mechanical concerns involving headlamps, coil springs, and ball joints.
