Our Verdict
A sensible purchase for those seeking a
When inspecting this specific Astra, pay close attention to the lighting and tyre condition. The 2025 and 2026 MOT records highlight issues with rear position lamp intensity and tyre perishing. Ensure any recent replacements are of good quality and that all exterior lighting is functioning at full brightness.
Given the 1.4L petrol engine, check for a consistent service history to ensure the turbocharger and cooling systems have been maintained. While the MOT history does not show engine failures, the aggregate data for this model suggests headlamps and tyres are common points of failure, so verify these have been addressed by the current owner.
As a 1.4L petrol model, this Astra is likely to sit in a moderate insurance group and tax band, making it suitable for a variety of drivers. Fuel economy for this engine size is generally efficient for mixed driving, though actual MPG will depend on driving style and maintenance.
Typical maintenance costs for an Astra of this age involve routine servicing, brake components, and eventually tyre replacements, as evidenced by the 2025 MOT advisories. Expect annual running costs to be consistent with a mid-sized petrol hatchback.
Focus your inspection on the rear lighting assembly and the tyres. The 2025 MOT noted cracking or perishing on both rear tyres, and the 2026 test flagged reduced intensity in the offside rear position lamp. Check that these have been fully rectified and not just patched.
Additionally, because the aggregate data for Vauxhall Astras identifies headlamps as a top failure reason, test all headlight beams for clarity and alignment. Finally, check the tread depth and age of all tyres to ensure they are not approaching the perishing state noted in the previous year's records.
This 2017 red Vauxhall Astra 1.4L petrol has covered 75,037 miles since its first registration in May 2017. The MOT history shows a pattern of passing with minor advisories regarding lighting and tyres in the most recent two years, following two years of defect-free tests. Its mileage is higher than the model average of 6,744 per year, reflecting more intensive use.
Aggregate data for this model shows a 78% MOT pass rate, with common issues relating to headlamps, tyres, and engine management.
