2016 Vauxhall Astra 1.6L Diesel · BF66 YEE

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of passing tests. The most recent inspection conducted in December 2025 at 81,327 miles resulted in a pass with no defects, indicating that the car currently meets minimum regulatory standards. This follows two years of clean records from 2024 and 2023, suggesting that the owner has maintained the mechanical integrity over the last several years. The mileage pattern is consistent with a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,100 miles per year. The data shows steady usage, such as the 3,790 miles covered between December 2024 and December 2025, and the 4,768 miles recorded in the preceding year. While there was a recorded failure in November 2023 at 72,628 miles, the vehicle passed the re-test just 100 days later. This indicates a minor rectify issue that was addressed promptly rather than a pattern of mechanical neglect. While the recent records show no active advisories, a buyer should still perform a physical inspection of components prone to wear at this mileage bracket. Given the Astra's age, specific attention should be paid to suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of cracking, as these often degrade before an MOT fail. The brake system should be checked for thinning discs or uneven wear, as the MOT does not measure the remaining life of pads. The clean history suggests a vehicle that has been well-looked after, but structural inspection of the chassis for corrosion remains a necessity for any car of this era.
