2012 Vauxhall Astra 1.6L Petrol · BD12 KHT

This Vauxhall Astra demonstrates a stable and exceptionally clean roadworthiness trend. The most recent MOT on 11 September 2025 at 54,823 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to 2022, suggesting a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard or has experienced very little mechanical stress. The mileage is remarkably low for a 14 year old vehicle, averaging roughly 3,916 miles per year. Between 16 August 2022 and 11 September 2025, the odometer increased by only 4,408 miles. Such low usage often indicates a car used for short local trips or one that has spent significant periods stationary. The lack of any recorded defects across these tests suggests the low mileage has not yet led to the premature degradation of rubber components or seized calipers. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on areas where low usage typically causes issues. Check for perishing on tyre sidewalls and the condition of the brake discs for surface corrosion, as these often deteriorate from standing rather than wear. Verify the fluid levels and look for signs of moisture in the brake fluid. The 16 August 2022 record shows a failure followed by an immediate pass at 50,415 miles, though the specific reason for that failure was not detailed in the provided data. Given the subsequent three years of clean passes, this appears to have been a minor, one-off rectification. The overall history indicates a well-preserved example with no recurring mechanical or structural red flags.
