2014 Vauxhall Astra 1.6L Petrol · YD14 AAJ

This Vauxhall Astra presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean bill of health in its most recent inspection. The test on 29 July 2025 at 97,786 miles passed without a single defect or advisory recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of passing subsequent tests after initial failures, suggesting the owner addresses required repairs promptly to ensure the vehicle meets legal standards. The mileage is typical for a twelve year old vehicle, averaging roughly 8,149 miles per year. Usage has remained steady, with the odometer climbing from 81,506 miles in July 2023 to 97,786 miles by July 2025. There are no erratic jumps in mileage or long periods of inactivity that would suggest neglect or hidden deterioration of the seals and gaskets. The MOT history is unusually clean for a vehicle of this age, showing no recorded advisories for common Astra issues such as suspension bush wear, coil spring fractures, or brake disc corrosion. While the failures on 5 July 2023 and 1 July 2024 are noted, the lack of specific defect data in the record makes it impossible to determine if these were minor consumables or more significant mechanical faults. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the underbody and wheel arches to check for structural corrosion, as the MOT record provides no data on the chassis condition. Given the lack of reported brake or suspension wear over the last 16,000 miles, a manual check of the tyre tread depths and brake pad thickness is recommended to ensure basic maintenance has kept pace with the clean test results.
