2014 Vauxhall Astra 1.7L Diesel · CF63 AEJ

This vehicle presents an exceptionally clean MOT history with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 30 June 2025 at 103,727 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to June 2021, suggesting a high standard of preventative maintenance or a vehicle that has been exceptionally well cared for. The mileage accumulation is typical for a twelve year old car, averaging roughly 8,644 miles per year. There is a noticeable increase in annual usage in recent years. Between June 2021 and June 2022, the car covered 7,667 miles, but this rose to 15,508 miles between June 2022 and June 2023. The most recent interval from June 2024 to June 2025 saw an increase of 14,051 miles. This shift toward higher annual mileage increases the wear rate on drivetrain components and consumables. Because the MOT record is devoid of any flagged defects, advisories, or recurring failures, there are no specific mechanical red flags to highlight. The absence of mentions regarding suspension bushes, brake disc corrosion, or exhaust leaks is unusual for a vehicle of this age and mileage. A buyer should still perform a physical check of the brake pads and tyre tread depths, as these consumables may be nearing the end of their life given the recent increase in annual mileage. Inspect the underbody for surface corrosion and check the service history for evidence of timing belt and water pump replacement. While the MOT tests confirm the car is roadworthy, they do not verify that scheduled manufacturer service intervals were met. Verifying the oil change frequency is the primary remaining concern for a buyer.
