2012 Vauxhall Astra SRI VX-Line Cdti S/S 2.0L Diesel · CXZ 5044

The Vauxhall Astra shows a stable roadworthiness trend. The most recent test on 29 August 2025 at 137,775 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior clean pass on 23 May 2024 at 127,071 miles confirms the vehicle has cleared its last two examinations without advisories or faults. This indicates the car currently sits in a sound mechanical condition with no flagged concerns from the DVSA tester. Mileage progression sits close to the typical average for a 2012 vehicle. The record shows 119,044 miles on 16 December 2022, rising to 126,072 miles by 30 March 2024 and 127,071 miles by 23 May 2024, then 137,775 miles at the 2025 test. The owner covered roughly 8,000 miles between late 2022 and spring 2024, with a short 999-mile gap between the March and May 2024 tests. The MOT data is sparse, with only four entries across the visible history, and shows no rapid accumulation or long dormant periods that would raise immediate concern. The March 2024 failure at 126,072 miles carries no recorded defects, which points to a administrative or documentation issue rather than a mechanical fault, and the car passed weeks later with a clean sheet. No recurring suspension, brake, exhaust, or corrosion problems appear in the file. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity, suspension bushes, brake discs, and underbody corrosion, as a clean MOT does not measure worn consumables or hidden rust on a 14-year-old chassis. Given the absence of advisories across the recent passes, previous keepers appear to have maintained basic statutory compliance. The lack of minor wear flags such as tyres or wiper blades suggests either prompt rectification before testing or light examiner notation. Verify service history and confirm the March 2024 failure cause in person before purchase.
