2010 Vauxhall Astra 1.7L Diesel · CK60 WFF

This Vauxhall Astra has maintained a consistent MOT pass record since the most recent test on 5 December 2025 , with no defects recorded at 125,970 miles . The absence of advisories or failures across the last five tests—spanning 97,889 to 125,970 miles —suggests a stable roadworthiness trend, though the duplicate entry for 2022 (a pass and a fail on the same date) appears anomalous and warrants clarification. The vehicle’s compliance with emissions, brakes, and structural checks remains unremarkable, but the lack of advisories does not preclude hidden wear in high-impact areas like suspension bushes or coil springs, which often fail silently before MOT thresholds. The recorded mileage of 125,970 miles over 16 years equates to an average of 7,873 miles per year , a rate typical for a vehicle of this age. There are no significant gaps or spikes in mileage accumulation—each annual increment (e.g., 4,315 miles between 2022 and 2023 , 4,618 miles between 2023 and 2024 ) aligns with steady usage. While this suggests regular driving rather than neglect or prolonged storage, it also implies consumable components —tyres, wiper blades, brake pads, and suspension elements—are likely nearing replacement thresholds. The consistent 11-month intervals between MOTs indicate punctual testing, but this does not guarantee all maintenance was performed between tests. A prospective buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of suspension components , particularly the rear suspension bushes and coil springs , given the vehicle’s age. The 2022 duplicate MOT hints at potential oversight, so checking for binding calipers, uneven brake pad wear, or corrosion on brake discs is critical. Structural integrity should also be assessed, focusing on floorpan corrosion (common in Astra models) and exhaust system integrity , as these often fail without prior warning. The 2025 pass confirms no major failures, but recurring advisories (if any) were not recorded—so a thorough check of fluid levels (brake, power steering, coolant) and engine mounts is advisable to preempt future issues.
