2001 Vauxhall Astra 1.6L Petrol · CN51 ACR

The Vauxhall Astra presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 2 June 2025 at 90,353 miles, with no defects logged. The maintenance trend reads as stable across the recorded history. Two earlier failures on 4 February 2025 at 89,790 miles and 23 January 2024 at 83,708 miles both closed with no defects recorded, indicating administrative or presentation issues at test rather than mechanical faults, since the car then passed within days at 83,773 and 90,353 miles respectively. At roughly 25 years old the vehicle shows 90,353 recorded miles, an average of about 3,614 miles per year. This is low for the age and suggests light use or extended periods off the road. The record logs a steady climb: 78,733 miles in January 2023, 83,708 in January 2024, 89,790 in February 2025, and 90,353 by June 2025. No large annual jumps appear. The sparse, clean advisories mean we cannot chart wear on consumables or chassis parts from the data alone. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and calipers given the car's age and low-use profile, as standing time accelerates corrosion and seizes components that regular running would keep free. The DVSA entries flag no structural integrity concerns or exhaust emissions failures, yet the twin no-defect failures hint the keeper may have presented the car unprepared or with minor non-logged issues now resolved. Given the clean pass and low mileage, the Astra looks mechanically sound on paper. Verify underneath for rust and confirm the braking system is not binding after storage before purchase.
