2010 Vauxhall Astra 1.6L Petrol · FH10 WVR

The Vauxhall Astra presents a currently roadworthy status following its most recent MOT pass on 19 August 2024 at 112,619 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the available record. The August 2024 test cycle shows an initial failure on the same day at 112,617 miles with no defects logged, immediately followed by a pass at 112,619 miles, indicating an administrative or presentation issue at the test centre rather than a mechanical fault. No advisories or defects appear across any of the four recorded tests. Annual mileage sits at a modest 7,039 miles against the car's 16-year life, a figure consistent with light-to-average use for a 2010 hatchback. The records show 88,230 miles in June 2022, rising to 101,847 miles by July 2023, then 112,619 miles by August 2024. That equates to roughly 13,000 miles in the first interval and 10,800 in the second, both above the long-term average yet not extreme. The clean pass history with no flagged wear items suggests the previous keeper kept basic consumables within limits, though the sparse four-entry record leaves long gaps unverified before 2022. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the car's age and the absence of any recorded advisories that might otherwise reveal emerging wear. The lack of corrosion or structural integrity flags in the MOT data is reassuring, but sixteen years of service can hide undertray rust and perished rubber not caught in a pass-only test. Verify the V5C and service book to confirm the 2022 to 2024 mileage jumps reflect genuine use rather than odometer correction. The same-day fail-and-pass at 112,617 and 112,619 miles warrants a check of the DVSA test certificate to confirm no suppressed defect. Otherwise the Astra's documented history shows no recurring mechanical trend and no worsening condition, leaving it as a low-risk used purchase subject to standard pre-sale scrutiny.
