2012 Vauxhall Astra 1.4L Petrol · CY62 BJX

The Vauxhall Astra presents as roadworthy following a pass on 12 November 2024 at 81,450 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable and clean across the available history, with no advisories or recurring mechanical faults flagged by testers. A prior failure on 30 October 2024 at the same mileage is anomalous, as the record shows no defects cited; this suggests an administrative or presentation issue at that test rather than a genuine mechanical defect. The mileage pattern indicates light use for a 2012 vehicle. The odometer read 59,979 miles in October 2021, rose marginally to 61,112 miles by October 2022, then climbed to 73,721 miles by October 2023 and held at 81,450 miles through both late-2024 tests. That averages roughly 5,800 miles per year. The step from 2022 to 2023 shows the largest annual gain at about 12,600 miles, yet the overall curve stays low for the age. No long standing gaps appear between annual tests. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and calipers, given the car's fourteen years regardless of low mileage. Prolonged standing inferred from the flat 2021 to 2022 period can permit corrosion to begin on structural members and brake components even without MOT flags. The duplicate 81,450-mile entries across the October and November 2024 tests warrant confirmation that the failure was resolved properly and the pass reflects true condition. Examine the V5C and service history to verify the odometer has not been stalled and to corroborate the sparse but clean test record.
