2018 Vauxhall Astra 1.4L Petrol · CA18 HTO

The Vauxhall Astra presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 8 August 2025 at 53,603 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean results across the available history. Annual mileage has averaged close to 6,700 miles, consistent with typical use for an eight-year-old vehicle. The records show steady accumulation: 25,683 miles in June 2021, 32,564 by June 2022, 41,399 in August 2023, 47,272 in August 2024, and 53,603 in August 2025. No gaps or sudden jumps appear between tests, and every entry carries a pass with no advisories logged. The absence of flagged items means the MOT data reveals no recurring faults in suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or structural corrosion. A clean five-year run suggests previous owners kept basic upkeep current rather than deferring consumable replacement. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the clear record. Low-stress mileage and stored periods can hide perished rubber components or surface corrosion not yet at test threshold. Verify brake caliper freedom, check underneath for early structural rust, and confirm tyre sidewall condition before purchase.
