Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The overall roadworthiness status for this 2012 Vauxhall Corsa is non-roadworthy due to a combination of frequent MOT failures and a deteriorating suspension condition. The most recent test on 17 June 2026 was conducted on 121,708 miles, which resulted in a failure on the 121,708 mile mark. This indicates that the vehicle has not undergone a full MOT cycle since the 2022 test, suggesting that maintenance has been inconsistent or that the vehicle has been used for extended periods without regular inspection. The maintenance trend appears to be stabilizing on the overall roadworthiness level, but the specific faults are worsening. The most recent test on 121,708 miles failed the PASSED test, confirming that the vehicle is currently non-roadworthy. The history shows a cycle of failure and passing, with the most recent failure occurring on the 121,708 mile mark. This pattern suggests that the vehicle has been used for extended periods without a full MOT, which is a significant risk factor for structural integrity. The failure on the 121,708 mile mark is the most critical finding, indicating that the vehicle has not been tested at the correct mileage threshold for its age. The mileage pattern is rapidly increasing relative to the vehicle's age of 14 years. The vehicle has accumulated approximately 121,708 miles in a single year, which is approximately 8,693 miles per year. This level of mileage accumulation is characteristic of a vehicle that has been used for extended periods without regular maintenance. The vehicle has passed tests at 119,664 miles and 115,031 miles, but has failed at 121,708 miles, indicating that the vehicle has been used for extended periods without a full MOT. The rapid mileage accumulation suggests that the vehicle has been used for extended periods without regular maintenance, which is a significant risk factor for structural integrity. The vehicle has passed tests at 119,664 miles and 115,031 miles, but has failed at 121,708 miles, indicating that the vehicle has been used for extended periods without a full MOT. The rapid mileage accumulation suggests that the vehicle has been used for extended periods without regular maintenance, which is a significant risk factor for structural integrity.
