2017 Vauxhall Astra 1.4L Petrol · DP17 WSW

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a positive maintenance trend over the last three years. The most recent inspection conducted on 15 May 2025 at 85,928 miles resulted in no defects, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum safety and environmental standards. This follows a period of clean passes in 2024 and 2022, suggesting that the previous owners have addressed necessary repairs promptly. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,500 miles per annum. This rate represents typical wear on drivetrain components and suspension assemblies. Between August 2022 and August 2023, the car covered 7,319 miles, followed by a more rapid interval of 3,914 miles between August 2023 and May 2024. The regularity of the testing suggests a consistent usage pattern, which reduces the risk of hidden mechanical degradation often associated with long periods of standing stationary. The single failure recorded on 15 August 2023 at 79,124 miles remains the only anomaly in the history. Since the vehicle passed the following day and all subsequent tests showed no advisories, the fault was likely a minor consumable or lighting issue rather than a systemic structural failure. A buyer should still perform a physical inspection of the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of wear, as these components often degrade as a vehicle approaches the 90,000-mile mark. Checking for corrosion on the brake discs and the integrity of the exhaust system remains advisable to ensure the clean MOT record reflects the current physical state of the chassis.
