2017 Vauxhall Insignia 1.6L Diesel · WP67 UEC

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a pattern of reactive rather than proactive care. While the most recent test in October 2025 passed at 65,151 miles, it followed a failure just one day prior due to multiple tyre defects and a malfunctioning tyre pressure monitoring system. The transition from failing on four tyres being near the legal limit or perishing to a pass within twenty-four hours suggests that the previous owner only addressed essential safety items when forced by the MOT testing process. At 65,151 miles over nine years, the Insignia has averaged approximately 7,200 miles per year, which aligns with typical low-to-moderate domestic usage. The mileage data shows consistent annual testing, with roughly 8,500 miles covered between the 2024 and 2025 tests. This relatively low mileage often leads to rubber-based components degrading due to age, as evidenced by the perishing and cracking of the rear tyres noted in the 2025 record despite the low overall mileage on the vehicle. A buyer should specifically inspect the front suspension and drivetrain components, as the 2024 test flagged a severely deteriorated nearside front outer drive shaft boot. The recurring issues with tyres worn unevenly on edges across 2024 and 2025 indicate potential alignment problems or worn suspension bushes that require professional investigation. Additionally, the pitted and scored rear brake discs noted in 2023 at 48,327 miles suggest the vehicle may have sat for extended periods or experienced infrequent use, leading to corrosion on braking surfaces. Verify the current state of all tyres and ensure the tyre pressure monitoring system has been fully rectified following the previous failure.
