2015 Vauxhall Astra 1.4L Petrol · LA15 ADU

The vehicle is currently roadworthy (passed) but the most recent test also recorded a failure, indicating an inconsistent maintenance trend. The alternating pass/fail pattern over the last three years suggests the vehicle has not maintained a stable condition, with each annual test showing a mixed outcome despite no recorded defects. At 61,707 miles over roughly 11 years, the average annual mileage of about 5,600 miles is low for its age. The increase from 53,632 miles in March 2024 to 59,467 miles in March 2025 shows a modest rise of 5,835 miles in just over a year, while the subsequent year to March 2026 added only 2,240 miles, indicating a slowdown in mileage accumulation. The MOT entries are spaced annually and the data is clean, with no major mileage spikes. Despite the lack of recorded defects, the recurring failures imply that hidden issues may exist. A buyer should closely inspect the braking system for binding calipers or worn discs, examine suspension bushes and coil springs for corrosion, check for any structural rust around sills and arches, and assess tyre tread depth and exhaust condition. Verifying that the recent pass/fail discrepancy has been resolved and that all advisory items have been addressed is essential before purchase.
