2015 Vauxhall Astra 1.6L Petrol · AF15 CKE

This 2015 Vauxhall Astra has an average mileage for its age, suggesting consistent use rather than excessive wear or long periods of standing. The most recent MOT in February 2026 was a pass, but only after a failure. The vehicle is showing a worsening trend regarding braking and tyre maintenance. In the last 18 months, there have been repeated issues with brake pads and discs, alongside a fractured rear coil spring and tyres worn close to the legal limit. The recurring pattern of "advisories" and failures related to consumables suggests a reactive approach to maintenance rather than a preventative one. The presence of pitted and scored brake discs, combined with tyres nearing their limit, indicates that basic wear-and-tear items are being left until they become MOT failures. A buyer should first inspect the current condition and depth of all four tyres. It is also critical to verify that the front brake discs and pads have been replaced since the February 2026 test, as the pitted and scored discs noted at the time of passing will require immediate attention to ensure safety and longevity.
