2015 Vauxhall Corsa 1.2L Petrol · XT12 BOO

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, following a clean MOT pass in December 2025 at 46,867 miles. The maintenance trend shows an improving trajectory after a period of mechanical concern in late 2024. While the car failed its test in November 2024 due to leaks and electrical faults, the subsequent pass a year later indicates that the owner addressed the primary defects, bringing the vehicle back to a passing standard. At 11 years old, the recorded mileage of 46,867 miles represents a low average of approximately 4,260 miles per year. This low usage often suggests less mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine, but it increases the likelihood of age-related degradation of rubber components and fluids. Between February 2023 and December 2025, the vehicle covered 11,790 miles, showing a consistent pattern of low-distance travel. Such low mileage can sometimes lead to dry seals or brake corrosion if the vehicle sits for long-term periods. A physical inspection should focus on the engine seal integrity, as oil leaks were flagged in both November and December 2024 tests. Although the vehicle passed the most recent test without defects, the buyer must verify that any previous leaks have been properly rectified and are not merely weeping. The nearside front MacPherson strut bush, which was noted as worn in October 2023 at 43,837 miles, should be checked to ensure the wear has not progressed into a structural failure. Additionally, ensure the tyre pressure monitoring system and offside wiper mechanism, which caused failures in 2024, remain fully functional.
