2014 Vauxhall Astra 1.7L Diesel · DV14 CGF

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following a period of clean test results. The most recent inspection conducted on 13 November 2025 at 99,313 miles resulted in no defects, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum legal standards. While a failure was recorded earlier in November 2024, the immediate pass on the same day suggests the owner was proactive in rectifying the identified issues without delay. The mileage pattern remains consistent with typical usage for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,276 miles per year. Between November 2022 and November 2023, the Astra covered 10,945 miles, while the interval between 2023 and 2024 saw 10,306 miles recorded. This steady accumulation suggests a predictable usage cycle rather than long periods of stagnation, which often leads to perished seals or seized brake components. The gap of 10,881 miles since the last test confirms the vehicle is still in regular use as of the current date. Despite the clean record in the most recent entries, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on components subject to age-related degradation and the specific nature of the 2024 failure. Given the vehicle is approaching 100,000 miles, checking for play in suspension arm bushes and worn coil springs is advisable. Ensure you inspect the underbody for structural corrosion on the sills and rear chassis, as these are common weak points for this generation. Verifying that the reason for the November 2024 failure was fully resolved will ensure the underlying mechanical issue does not recur.
