2018 Vauxhall Astra 1.4L Petrol · DV18 WDZ

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted in November 2025 at 79,074 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, continuing a trend of stability spanning over three years. This consistency suggests a proactive maintenance regime where the primary mechanical and structural components have remained within acceptable operating parameters without triggering recurring failure points. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per annum. Between March 2022 at 43,062 miles and March 2024 at 62,046 miles, the car covered 18,984 miles, indicating a steady and predictable usage pattern. The jump of 6,459 miles recorded between March 2025 and November 2025 shows the vehicle remains in active use despite its age, which helps prevent the seal-related corrosion and component degradation often associated with long periods of inactivity. Because the MOT record shows no history of structural corrosion, leaks, or brake failures, a physical inspection should focus on standard consumable wear associated with the 80,0000-mile mark. A buyer should verify the condition of the suspension bushes and shock absorbers, as these are often the first to show fatigue at this interval. Given the lack of recorded advisories for brakes, the discs and pads should be checked for thinning or uneven wear to ensure the previous owner has not merely deferred maintenance between the annual test dates.
