2019 Vauxhall Astra 1.4L Petrol · DF19 EEM

The most recent MOT in September 2025 initially resulted in a failure due to tyre defects. The inspection identified a cut in the nearside rear tyre deep enough to reach the cords, along with a nail in the offside rear tyre. These issues were resolved to secure a pass. Aside from these tyre-related defects, the vehicle's MOT history is very clean. There have been no recorded mechanical issues or structural defects in the three years preceding the recent tyre failures. This suggests a stable maintenance trend rather than a worsening condition. The recorded mileage of 58,266 miles is typical for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 8,300 miles per year. This level of use suggests the car has likely seen regular, moderate driving rather than extreme mileage or long periods of inactivity, which helps maintain a predictable wear pattern on components. When inspecting the car in person, you should first check the condition and tread depth of all four tyres to ensure they are consistent with the recent repairs. You should also inspect the wheels for any signs of impact damage or heavy kerbing.
