2017 Vauxhall Astra 1.4L Petrol · DP66 NKA

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile with a clean recent history. The most recent MOT test on 1 December 2025 at 41,762 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a successful test in December 2024 at 39,767 miles, which also showed no advisories. The absence of defects in the last two annual inspections suggests the vehicle is currently in a well-maintained state regarding its primary mechanical and safety components. The mileage pattern indicates light usage for a 2017 model, averaging approximately 4,640 miles per year. The data shows consistent, incremental increases in mileage, such as the 2,155-mile increase between February and December 2024. This low-mileage profile reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, though the relatively infrequent use can sometimes lead to secondary issues like seized components or age-related rubber degradation. The MOT history reveals minor consumable wear rather than systemic mechanical failure. In February 2024 at 37,612 miles, the tester flagged both nearside and offside front tyres as approaching the legal tread depth limit. This follows an earlier advisory in February 2021 at 28,248 miles regarding thin front and rear brake pads. These entries represent standard wear-and-tear patterns for a vehicle of this age and mileage. A prospective buyer should conduct a physical inspection of the tyre tread and brake pad thickness to ensure the recent replacements were carried out as expected. Given the low annual mileage, it is prudent to check the condition of rubber components like suspension bushes and coolant hoses for signs of perishing. While the records show no structural corrosion or serious mechanical faults, verifying the service history for oil changes will confirm if the low mileage has been matched by regular maintenance.
