2013 Vauxhall Astra 1.6L Petrol · DA63 UEH

The Vauxhall Astra presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 18 January 2025 at 128,567 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior annual tests from 2021 to 2024 also passed cleanly. No advisories or mechanical faults appear across the available history, indicating the vehicle has not shown worsening condition or recurring defects in the recorded period. Mileage sits at a typical level for a 2013 vehicle, averaging roughly 9,890 miles per year against the 128,567 miles recorded. The test on 23 January 2024 at 116,157 miles and the 11 January 2023 test at 113,970 miles show low annual use of around 2,000 miles between those years. A gap exists between the 5 October 2021 test at 94,548 miles and the 2023 test, with no 2022 entry logged. The DVSA record also shows a failed test on 5 October 2021 at 94,545 miles with no defects recorded, immediately followed the same day by a pass at 94,548 miles, suggesting an administrative or data anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. Given the clean MOT history with no flagged suspension bushes, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions issues, the buyer should still commission an independent physical inspection. At 13 years old and 128,567 miles, consumable items such as tyres, wiper blades, and coil springs may carry latent wear not captured in a pass result. The absence of advisories across five tests implies previous owners kept basic upkeep current, but standing periods implied by low mileage years can conceal perished rubber components or binding calipers. A pre-purchase check should confirm structural integrity underneath and assess for superficial rust on sills and subframes. The identical-mileage pass after the same-day 2021 failure warrants a review of the DVSA entry for clarity, though it carries no recorded defect. No ongoing fault trend is evident from the data supplied.
