2014 Vauxhall Astra 1.6L Petrol · EY64 ACU

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a stable maintenance trend. In the most recent test on October 21 2025 at 38,677 miles, the Astra passed with no defects recorded. This follows a sequence of three clean passes dating back to October 2022, indicating that once the initial failure earlier that same year was rectified, the vehicle has maintained a consistent standard of presentation over the last three years. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,223 miles per year. Between October 2023 and October 2024, the car covered 2,104 miles, while the previous interval saw a slightly higher accumulation of 2,712 miles. While this low usage suggests minimal wear on the drivetrain and engine components, the long intervals between annual tests can sometimes lead to age-related degradation of rubber-based parts that do not show up on a standard MOT test. Despite the lack of recorded advisories, a buyer must inspect for signs of neglect associated with low-mileage vehicles that sit stationary. Check for corrosion on the brake discs and calipers, which can become seized or pitted when not used frequently. The buyer should also examine suspension bushes and tyre boots for cracking, as these components perish over time regardless of the distance driven. The structural integrity of the chassis should be verified visually to ensure no surface or deep-seated rust has developed in common Astra vulnerability areas during periods of inactivity.
