2014 VAUXHALL ASTRA SE CDTI ECOFLEX S/S2.0L Diesel

The vehicle presents a stable level of roadworthiness based on a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent inspection conducted on 25 November 2025 at 140,969 miles resulted in no defects or advisories recorded. This clean sheet across the last five tests suggests that the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that avoids the common mechanical and structural failures typically seen in high-mileage Astra models. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a twelve-year-old diesel, averaging approximately 11,700 miles per year. Between October 2023 at 119,818 miles and October 2024 at 130,352 miles, the car covered roughly 10,500 miles, showing steady use without fluctuations. The gap between January 2021 and October 2022 shows a slightly higher accumulation of over 17,000 miles, but the overall trend indicates the vehicle has not been subjected to extreme strain or the neglect associated with long periods of standing. While the MOT record shows no recurring faults, a buyer must still account for the high-mileage components inherent to the CDTI engine and chassis. A physical inspection should focus on the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, which often degrade by 140,000 miles. Given the age, checking for oil leaks around the valve cover and verifying the integrity of the brake fluid system is essential, as these areas do not always trigger an MOT failure until they reach a critical state.
