2002 Vauxhall Astra Envoy 8V Auto 1.6L Other · IKZ 3504

The Vauxhall Astra carries a current clean roadworthiness status. The most recent test on 1 August 2025 at 69,632 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the maintenance trend is stable with no advisories or failures across the last three passed certificates. Prior to that, the 18 July 2024 test at 68,466 miles also passed with no defects, confirming the vehicle has held a sound mechanical condition for over a year. The recorded mileage shows exceptionally light use for a 24-year-old vehicle. From the 22 November 2022 failure at 68,203 miles to the 1 August 2025 pass at 69,632 miles, the odometer advanced only 1,429 miles across roughly 32 months, averaging under 540 miles per year. The history shows two isolated failures in 2022 and 2024, both at 68,203 and 68,429 miles respectively, with no defects listed on the certificates, suggesting administrative or presentation issues at test rather than mechanical faults. A 12-month gap then sits between the July 2024 and August 2025 tests with just 1,166 miles added. A buyer should still arrange a physical inspection of structural integrity and corrosion points given the vehicle's age and low usage pattern. Long standing periods between short trips promote underbody rust and seized suspension bushes or brake calipers that a clean MOT may not capture if the tester finds no active defect. The automatic transmission and cooling system also warrant a road test, as low annual mileage hides wear rather than preventing it. Given the sparse but clean record, no recurring mechanical trend emerges from the data. The previous owner appears to have stored the car for extended periods and committed to basic statutory testing without recorded neglect, though the two no-defect failures imply the car was presented without valid reason for rejection on both occasions.
