2009 Vauxhall Astra 1.6L Petrol · CX58 YPJ

The Vauxhall Astra presents as roadworthy on the most recent test, passing cleanly on 12 June 2025 at 94,907 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable across the available history, with the three most recent annual tests showing no advisories or faults. The vehicle avoided any repeat failures after mid-2023, indicating the earlier test anomalies were administrative rather than mechanical. Recorded mileage sits at 94,907 against a 2009 build, averaging roughly 5,583 miles per year. The DVSA log shows 86,742 miles on 16 June 2023, 91,658 on 27 June 2024, and 94,907 on 12 June 2025. Annual accumulation stayed between 2,900 and 3,900 miles, confirming light use for the age. The sparse, clean record gives no evidence of rapid accumulation or neglected intervals, though the two same-day fail-pass pairs in 2023 and 2024 at identical mileages suggest clerical re-entry rather than genuine repair work. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and subframe corrosion given the car's seventeen years. Low mileage often masks standing moisture damage and perished rubber, which a pass with no advisories will not capture. Brake discs and calipers warrant measurement for lip and binding, as the history offers no wear baseline beyond the absence of flags. The clean MOT sequence implies prior owners kept basic statutory testing current but provides no proof of proactive servicing. Verify cambelt interval, coolant condition, and underbody structural integrity before purchase, since the record alone cannot confirm drivetrain care on a low-use older hatchback.
