2006 Vauxhall Astra 1.7L Diesel · FH55 PDY

The Vauxhall Astra presents a stable roadworthiness trend with no recorded defects across its two most recent MOT tests. The November 2022 examination at 163,959 miles returned a clean pass with no advisories, matching the prior November 2021 pass at 150,673 miles. The vehicle shows no worsening faults or recurring mechanical concerns in the supplied record. Annual mileage sits at a typical level for a 2006 model, averaging roughly 8,198 miles per year against the 163,959 recorded. The gap between the two tests shows 13,286 miles added over twelve months, a consistent and unremarkable accumulation. With only two clean entries supplied and no minor consumable wear or structural issues flagged, the history is sparse but favourable. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and subframe corrosion given the car's twenty-year age and high total mileage. The MOT record omits any advisories, yet testers often miss early structural rust or worn components on a brief lift check. Verify the odometer reading against service stamps and confirm the 2022 test was the final entry, since no 2023 or 2024 certificate appears in the data. Standing time since November 2022 may have allowed tyre perishing or brake caliper binding to develop unseen.
