2014 Vauxhall Astra 1.7L Diesel · CV14 BCU

The vehicle presents a stable state of roadworthiness, showing a consistent maintenance trend over the last several years. The most recent inspection conducted on 18 March 2026 at 138,481 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a period of clean passes dating back 2019, indicating that the current owner is likely addressing potential mechanical issues before they result in an MOT failure. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a typical-use vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 11,500 miles per annum. Between March 2023 and March 2026, the Astra covered 36,671 miles, maintaining a steady rate of operation. There was a noticeable dip in usage between 2021 and 2022, where the car covered only 3,649 miles, but usage returned to its normal levels thereafter, with 13,653 miles recorded in the following interval. The history shows a single failure in March 2018 at 72,095 miles due to a broken nearside rear coil spring and front tyres reaching the legal wear limit. Since that failure, the record has remained clear of suspension or brake-related defects. However, given the vehicle has surpassed 138,000 miles, a buyer should personally inspect the condition of the rubber bushes and control arms for signs of cracking or tearing. Checking for structural corrosion on the underbody and exhaust system is also advisable, as these are common points of failure on high-mileage Vauxhall models of this era.
