2012 Vauxhall Corsa 1.4L Petrol · YB61 YSW

The 2012 Vauxhall Corsa presents a currently roadworthy status following its most recent pass on 8 April 2026 at 76,793 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded period. The vehicle carries a clean test sheet on that date, showing no defects or advisories. Prior to this, the same-day failure on 8 April 2026 at 76,792 miles recorded no defects, indicating an administrative or presentation issue rather than a mechanical fault. The pattern repeats from 7 April 2025, where a failure at 70,604 miles with no defects preceded a same-day pass at identical mileage. Mileage sits at 76,793 over roughly fourteen years, equating to about 5,485 miles per year, which is low for a supermini of this age. The records show steady annual use: 61,642 miles on 29 March 2024, rising to 70,604 by April 2025 and 76,793 by April 2026. No large gaps or sudden accumulation appear. The sparse history with three annual tests and zero advisories suggests light use, though low mileage combined with the repeated no-defect failures hints the car may have stood idle between tests or been presented without proper documentation. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the age and the possibility of corrosion from standing. The MOT data flags no structural integrity concerns or emissions failures, yet the twin failure-pass pairs on both 2025 and 2026 dates warrant verification of the V5C and test certificates. Check tyre sidewall condition and wiper blades for perishing, as these consumables degrade with low-mileage storage regardless of test outcomes.
