2016 VAUXHALL ASTRA TECH LINE CDTI S/S1.6L Diesel

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2026-01-16 at 104,205 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend. Previous tests from 2024-12-17, 2023-10-14, and 2022-08-02 also passed without issues, suggesting consistent upkeep. The single failure on 2023-09-23 at 85,139 miles was recorded as a pass with no defects, which may reflect a procedural error or minor non-compliance resolved before retesting. Overall, the history shows no recurring mechanical concerns, with no structural, brake, or suspension issues flagged. Mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a 10-year-old vehicle, averaging ~10,420 miles annually. A notable gap between 2022-08-02 (74,440 miles) and 2023-09-23 (85,139 miles) suggests a 10,700-mile increase over 13 months, followed by a 1,289-mile rise to 85,268 miles by 2023-10-14. The final 10,937 miles to 104,205 were logged in 15 months, reflecting a slight acceleration in usage but no irregularities in the MOT record. The absence of repeated failures or advisories implies no systemic wear issues requiring immediate intervention. Buyers should inspect the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, as these components often degrade with age. The exhaust system and brake discs should also be checked for corrosion or uneven wear, as these are common in vehicles with high mileage. While no structural rust or binding calipers were noted in the MOT history, a physical inspection is recommended to confirm the integrity of the underbody and confirm the absence of hidden damage. The lack of recurring defects suggests the vehicle has been well-maintained, but a thorough pre-purchase check remains prudent.
