2011 Vauxhall Astra 2.0L Diesel · DA11 GZF

The Vauxhall Astra presents as roadworthy following its most recent test on 22 December 2025 at 146,486 miles, where the tester recorded no defects. The maintenance trend across the available history is stable, with four consecutive passes between December 2022 and December 2025 and no advisories logged at any stage. A single failure on 19 December 2025 at 146,435 miles is anomalous; the record shows no defects cited, which suggests an administrative or presentation issue at retest rather than a mechanical fault, with the vehicle passing three days later. Annual mileage sits at roughly 9,766 per year against a 15-year life, which is typical for the age. The odometer moved from 120,849 miles in December 2022 to 126,597 in December 2023, then 133,644 in December 2024 and 146,486 by December 2025. That equates to about 5,700 miles in year one of the record, 6,000 in year two, and a sharper 12,800 in the final year. The jump in the last twelve months implies heavier recent use, though the clean test outcomes show no resultant wear flags. The absence of recorded advisories on suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, or corrosion across all tests indicates no ongoing mechanical trend requiring intervention. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody for rust, given the vehicle's age and the unexplained December 2025 failure with no defect listed. Verify the retest paperwork to confirm the earlier failure cause. Check tyre condition, wiper blades, and exhaust emissions in person, as these consumables fall outside MOT defect logging when within limits. The high final-year mileage warrants scrutiny of drivetrain and clutch wear not captured by the MOT. Overall, the record supports a sound used purchase subject to standard pre-sale checks.
