2017 VAUXHALL ASTRA1.4L Petrol

This Vauxhall Astra presents an exceptionally stable roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 4 February 2026 at 53,992 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This clean bill of health follows a consistent pattern of first-time passes dating back to 2021, indicating a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard and kept in a state of constant compliance. The mileage is low for a nine year old vehicle, averaging roughly 6,000 miles per year. The accumulation has been steady, though the gap between the August 2022 test at 32,221 miles and the September 2023 test at 43,430 miles shows a period of higher usage. More recently, the vehicle has seen a significant drop in activity, covering only 3,249 miles between September 2024 and February 2026. The absence of any advisories over five years of testing is unusual and suggests a meticulous approach to preventative maintenance. No recurring issues with suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions appear in the record. The lack of flagged corrosion indicates the structural integrity remains sound for its age. A buyer should focus on components that degrade during periods of low use or standing. Check for flat spots on the tyres and ensure the brake calipers are not seizing, as the low mileage and recent drop in usage can lead to binding. A physical inspection of the battery health and fluid levels is recommended to ensure the car has not suffered from prolonged inactivity.
