2006 Vauxhall Astra 1.6L Petrol · DA06 CTV

The Vauxhall Astra presents as roadworthy on the most recent test, passing cleanly on 30 June 2025 at 95,815 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend reads as stable across the last three years, with each annual test ultimately resulting in a pass and no advisories or faults carried forward. The duplicated fail and pass entries logged on the same days in June 2023 and June 2024 suggest administrative re-tests rather than mechanical rectification, since no defects were listed against either the failures or the passes. Recorded mileage sits low for a 2006 vehicle, rising from 92,719 miles at the June 2023 test to 94,490 miles in June 2024 and 95,815 miles by June 2025. That equates to roughly 1,300 miles per year over the recorded period, well below the 4,791 annual average implied by the odometer against vehicle age. The sparse, clean record gives little insight into consumable turnover, though such low use over twenty years often means long standing periods that can encourage corrosion and perished rubber components even where the MOT shows no fault. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion, as the MOT history records no advisories yet offers no assurance on hidden rust at 20 years old. Suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs warrant hands-on checks for age-related degradation that a no-defect test does not capture. The same-day fail and pass pattern in 2023 and 2024 points to clerical re-entry rather than owner neglect, but verifying the V5C and any service invoices remains sensible given the limited evidential trail.
