2014 Vauxhall Adam 1.2L Petrol · YP64 FDD

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, showing a consistent maintenance trend over the last four years. The most recent MOT test on 18 February 2026 at 144,146 miles resulted in a pass with no defects, following a failure exactly one day prior at the same mileage. This suggests a minor issue was identified and rectified immediately before the retest, indicating an owner who is willing to address compliance issues to maintain the vehicle. At 144,146 miles, this Vauxhall Adam averaged approximately 12,000 miles per annum, which sits above the national average for a car of this age. The data shows steady, consistent usage with roughly 5,000 miles covered between November 2022 and November 2023, and another 5,700 miles covered between November 2023 and November 2024. This regular mileage often suggests that mechanical components remain in active use rather than suffering from the degradation associated with long periods of standing. While the record is clean of recurring major structural failures, the buyer must focus on components most susceptible to high-mileage urban driving. An inspection should target the suspension bushes, coil springs, and steering linkages, as these often show wear after 140,000 miles. Given the high mileage, checking the brake discs and calipers for excessive thinning or binding conditions is essential to ensure the braking system is not nearing the end of its functional life despite the recent MOT pass.
