2013 Vauxhall Astra 1.4L Petrol · DF63 ABN

The 2026‑04‑19 MOT at 65,720 miles passed with no defects, confirming current roadworthiness, but the record shows a pattern of recurring tyre wear, a coolant filler tank reported empty, and a lamp failure, indicating maintenance gaps. The mileage trajectory reflects a low annual average of about 5,055 miles, yet substantial jumps occurred between 2022‑2023 (+8,900 miles) and 2023‑2024 (+9,400 miles), suggesting periods of intensive use followed by slower intervals. A buyer should therefore inspect the suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and calipers for binding or wear, verify coolant system integrity after finding the filler tank empty, and examine the lighting circuit and bulb condition following the 2023 lamp failure, while also checking for structural rust and tyre condition beyond the documented perishing. Although the latest test confirms the Vauxhall Astra meets legal standards, the history of tyre degradation, coolant deficiency, and occasional electrical faults points to deferred routine care, making a thorough in‑person inspection essential before purchase.
