Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The most recent MOT shows this Astra failed initially due to a dangerous tyre with exposed ply or cords, then passed after replacement. The same test revealed critically worn brake components across all four wheels. Front brake discs show significant wear but remain within legal limits. All brake pads are wearing thin front and rear. The clutch also shows signs of wear according to the tester. The condition trend is clearly worsening. Three consecutive clean MOTs from 2023 through early 2024 became problematic by September 2025. Multiple brake components deteriorated significantly during the 8,715 miles covered in that final year. Annual mileage of 7,328 suggests moderate use over twelve years. However, the rapid deterioration pattern indicates either harder driving conditions than the mileage suggests, or potential periods of standing followed by intensive use that accelerates component wear.
