2014 Vauxhall Astra 1.6L Diesel · FG64 UNK

The Vauxhall Astra presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 19 January 2026 at 126,754 miles, with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable across the available history, showing no worsening mechanical faults or recurring advisories. The vehicle cleared its final test cleanly after a same-day failure on 19 January 2026 at 126,748 miles where the tester logged no defects, indicating an administrative or presentation issue rather than a mechanical defect. Mileage progression sits at a typical annual rate of roughly 10,563 miles for a 12-year-old car. The record shows 104,239 miles on 3 November 2023, then 107,906 miles at the January 2025 tests, and 126,754 miles by January 2026. That final jump of nearly 19,000 miles in twelve months is above the long-term average and suggests heavier use in the last year. The sparse test history between late 2023 and early 2025 gives limited visibility of consumable wear through that period. The repeated same-day fail-and-pass pattern in January 2025 and January 2026, with no defects listed, points to previous owners correcting minor non-mechanical items or rectifying paperwork before retest rather than addressing suspension bushes, brake discs, or corrosion. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity, subframe rust, and binding calipers given the age and the elevated final-year mileage. The clean advisories mean no outstanding wear items were flagged, but twelve years invites隐蔽 deterioration unseen in a pass result. Given the absent advisories across all tests, the Astra shows no evidence of neglected tyres, wiper blades, or exhaust emissions failures. The buyer should verify service history independently and confirm the 2026 failure cause was non-mechanical, as the DVSA entry records no defect detail.
