This Vauxhall Astra presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean record of passes across the last three years. The most recent test on 12 August 2025 at 80,074 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the record shows failures on 21 August 2024 and 12 August 2025, these were resolved on the same day, suggesting minor issues that were rectified immediately to achieve a pass. The vehicle has covered 80,074 miles over 13 years, averaging roughly 6,160 miles per year. This is a typical usage pattern for a car of this age. The mileage progression is consistent, increasing from 69,762 miles in August 2023 to 74,292 miles in August 2024, and finally to 80,074 miles in August 2025. This steady accumulation indicates the car has been in regular use rather than sitting idle for long periods. The absence of advisories or recurring failures regarding suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake discs is unusual for a thirteen year old vehicle. The record suggests a high standard of preventative maintenance or a very light duty cycle. Because the MOT history is exceptionally clean, it provides little data on the actual wear of consumables. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on areas the MOT tester may have overlooked or that do not trigger a failure. Check for structural corrosion on the sills and chassis, as rust often develops before it becomes a critical MOT failure. Verify the condition of the brake pads and tyre tread depths manually to ensure they are not nearing their legal limits, as the lack of advisories does not guarantee these parts are new.
