2011 Vauxhall Astra 1.6L Petrol · CX61 VHC

The Vauxhall Astra shows a current roadworthy status following the September 2025 pass at 123,112 miles, though the same-day fail with no defects logged points to an administrative retest rather than a mechanical fault. The maintenance trend is stable across the recorded history, with three consecutive passes and no advisories or defects raised since the August 2023 test at 108,370 miles. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical 8,207 miles per year for a 15-year-old vehicle. The record moves from 108,370 miles in August 2023 to 118,083 at the September 2024 test, then 123,112 by September 2025. That is roughly 9,700 and 5,000 miles in each intervening year, showing no rapid accumulation or long standing gaps. The DVSA data is sparse and clean, with no worn tyres, corroded structures, or failing emissions ever flagged. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the car's age and 123,112 miles. The MOT record raises no warning on structural integrity or exhaust emissions, but testers recorded no advisories at all, which can mean minor wear went unlogged. Verify the September 2025 same-day fail was purely procedural by checking the V5C and test certificate. Confirm in person that handbrake mechanism, binding calipers, and underbody corrosion remain within limits before purchase.
