2016 VAUXHALL ASTRA1.4L Petrol

This Vauxhall Astra presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean MOT history. The most recent test on 16 December 2025 at 41,792 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to January 2024, suggesting the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that meets all statutory safety and emissions requirements. The mileage is exceptionally low for a ten year old vehicle, averaging roughly 4,179 miles per year. Between the January 2024 test at 32,098 miles and the December 2025 test at 41,792 miles, the car covered 9,694 miles over nearly two years. This low usage suggests the car has not been subjected to heavy wear, though such low annual mileage can sometimes indicate periods of standing which may affect rubber components. Because the MOT record is devoid of advisories or failures, there are no recurring mechanical trends to flag. The absence of mentions regarding brake disc corrosion, suspension bush wear, or exhaust leaks is positive. However, a buyer should still manually check for perished tyres or leaking shock absorbers, as these issues often arise from low-mileage vehicles sitting idle rather than from active wear. A physical inspection should focus on the structural integrity of the underbody to ensure no hidden corrosion has developed. While the DVSA records show no failures, verifying the condition of the brake calipers and fluid is prudent given the low mileage. The lack of recorded defects suggests a well-kept vehicle, but a manual check of the service history will confirm if the oil and filters were changed regardless of the low distance travelled.
