Our Verdict
A dependable choice for buyers seeking a
Given that this vehicle has covered nearly 100,000 miles, the most critical step is verifying the service history. Specifically, check for documentation regarding the timing belt and water pump replacement, as these are vital for the longevity of the 1.6L diesel engine.
Negotiate the price based on the mileage, which is significantly higher than the average Astra. Ensure all service intervals have been met to offset the risks associated with higher usage.
The 1.6L diesel engine is built for efficiency, making this car a strong candidate for high-mileage drivers or long commutes. Fuel costs should remain competitive, though diesel prices and the specific tax band for a 2017 model will impact the monthly budget.
Typical maintenance will involve regular oil changes and tyre replacements. Based on the engine size and age, the annual cost will be dominated by fuel and insurance, with moderate servicing requirements.
Inspect the front tyres closely for uneven wear, as the August 2023 MOT specifically noted tyres worn close to the legal limit on the edges. This could indicate a need for wheel alignment or a pattern of heavy wear.
Additionally, check the headlamps and ensure the engine management light (EML) illuminates and extinguishes correctly during the start-up sequence, as these are among the top failure reasons for this model across the UK fleet.
This blue 2017 Vauxhall Astra 1.6L diesel has a recorded mileage of 97,291 miles. Its MOT history is relatively clean, with four tests recorded and only one minor advisory regarding front tyre wear in 2023. The vehicle's record is positive when compared to the model's aggregate MOT pass rate of 78%.
The Vauxhall Astra has an average MOT pass rate of 78%, with common failures typically linked to headlamps, tyres, and inoperative engine management lights.
