2018 Vauxhall Corsa 1.4L Petrol · WD18 NZC

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, evidenced by a clean pass in the most recent test in April 2026 at 33,060 miles. The maintenance trend shows an improving trajectory as the mechanical defects identified in previous years have been addressed. Following a 2024 failure related to lighting and brake wear, the lack of any advisories in the latest inspection suggests that the owner is responsive to MOT requirements once faults are flagged during testing. The mileage profile is notably low, with 33,060 miles over eight years, averaging approximately 4,132 miles per annum. This low usage typically suggests less strain on the engine and drivetrain, though the long intervals between tests show minimal annual accumulation. Between June 2024 and June 2025, the car covered only 1,537 miles. Such low-frequency driving can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components and surface corrosion on brake rotors due to lack of heat cycles and movement. A buyer should perform a close physical inspection of the front suspension components. The June 2025 test flagged both front track rod end ball joint dust covers. While these did not cause a failure at the time, they indicate the beginning of rubber perish in the steering linkage. You should also verify the front brake discs for pitting or scoring, as the 2024 record noted they were worn, and low annual mileage often results in surface rust if the vehicle is not used frequently.
