Mechanical Assessment

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

The Vauxhall Astra presents as roadworthy following its most recent test on 17 October 2025 at 100,510 miles, where it passed after an initial same-day failure for an inoperative tyre pressure monitoring system. The maintenance trend is stable with no escalating mechanical faults across the record. The 2024 test at 88,042 miles flagged all four brake discs as worn, pitted or scored but not seriously weakened, and these advisories cleared by the 2025 pass with no further defects noted. Recorded mileage rose from 74,851 at the October 2023 test to 88,042 by October 2024, then to 100,510 by October 2025, equating to roughly 12,500 miles per year over the last two years against a ten-year average of 10,051. No standing periods or abrupt accumulation gaps appear in the data. The history is sparse on consumable wear, with only the TPMS fault recurring and the 2024 disc condition noted; no structural corrosion or suspension bush failures were ever recorded. A buyer should physically verify the tyre pressure monitoring system function, as the tester cited an inoperative unit on both 11 October 2023 and 17 October 2025, suggesting the previous owner deferred the repair until forced by the failure. Inspect the brake discs and calipers in person despite the 2025 pass, given the 2024 advisories for pitting on all four corners at 88,042 miles. Check suspension components and underbody for corrosion, though the record shows no prior flags in those areas.
