2014 Vauxhall Astra 2.0L Diesel · DN64 GGF

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of passing tests. The most recent inspection conducted in June 2025 at 86,679 miles resulted in no defects, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum safety standards. While a minor failure occurred in May 2024, the immediate rectification and subsequent pass without any further recorded advisories suggest that the previous owner was proactive in addressing mechanical issues identified by the tester. The mileage pattern remains consistent with typical usage for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,200 miles per annum. Between June 2022 and June 2023, the Astra covered 1,861 miles, showing a period of low usage. However, the mileage increased significantly in the following two years, covering 16,927 miles up to the June 2025 test. This fluctuation in usage often leads to variable wear on the drivetrain and suspension components, though the total figure remains well within expected parameters for this age. Given the clean nature of the recent records, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on components most prone to age-related degradation despite the low total mileage. Check the chassis for corrosion, particularly around the rear wheel arches and sills, where structural integrity can compromise over a decade. Inspect the suspension rubberwork and coil springs for cracking or tearing, as long periods of standing can cause rubber components to perish. Additionally examine the brake discs for signs of pitting or thinning to ensure the low mileage has not masked excessive oxidation.
