2011 Vauxhall Astra 1.6L Petrol · FE61 ABN

This vehicle presents an exceptionally stable roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 10 November 2025 at 55,417 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent five-year trend of flawless test results, indicating a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard or has experienced very little mechanical stress. The mileage is remarkably low for a 2011 model, averaging roughly 3,694 miles per year. The data shows a steady, low-volume accumulation of miles, increasing by only 1,836 miles between November 2024 and November 2025. This linear pattern suggests the car has been used for short, light-duty trips rather than sitting dormant for years at a time, which typically reduces the risk of sudden seal failure or seized components. Despite the clean MOT record, the low usage pattern introduces specific risks that a buyer must verify during a physical inspection. Long periods of light use often lead to brake disc corrosion or binding calipers due to inactivity. You should check for pitted discs and ensure the brake pedal feel is firm. The absence of any flagged suspension bushes, coil springs, or structural corrosion over the last five years is positive, but rubber components can perish due to age regardless of mileage. Inspect the tyre sidewalls for age-related cracking and check the condition of the engine mounts and coolant hoses to ensure they have not degraded over the last 15 years.
