Our Verdict
A strong recommendation for buyers seeki
Focus on the service history to confirm that the timing belt and water pump have been replaced, as these are critical maintenance items for high-mileage diesel engines. Verify the operation of the diesel particulate filter (DPF), particularly if the vehicle will be used for short urban journeys rather than motorway commuting.
Given the mileage of 110,911, use this as a point of negotiation against lower-mileage examples of the 2015 model year. Ensure there is a clear paper trail for oil changes to support the engine's longevity.
The 1.6L diesel engine is geared towards fuel efficiency, making it a cost-effective choice for high-mileage drivers. Tax will be based on the 2015 diesel CO2 emissions brackets, and insurance groups for the Astra are typically mid-range and affordable.
Typical maintenance costs for this model are standard for the class, though high-mileage diesel components may require more frequent attention. The estimated annual running cost is likely to be moderate.
While this specific vehicle has no recorded MOT defects, you should still inspect the tyres and headlamps, as these are the most common failure points across the wider Astra model range. Check the brake discs and pads for wear, as the 110,911 miles may necessitate a replacement if not already done.
Confirm that the engine management light (EML) illuminates and extinguishes correctly during the start-up sequence, as 'engine mil inoperative' is a frequent failure reason for this model in aggregate data.
This black 2015 Vauxhall Astra 1.6 Diesel has covered 110,911 miles. Its MOT record from 2022 to 2026 is notably free of failures and advisories. While the total mileage is above the model average, the lack of recorded MOT defects over the last five years is a positive data point.
The Astra shows a respectable average MOT pass rate of 78.0% across nearly 800,000 analysed vehicles.
