2013 Vauxhall Astra 1.6L Petrol · FH62 NLE

The Vauxhall Astra presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 24 July 2025 at 110,584 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three preceding annual tests also passed cleanly. No advisories or mechanical faults appear across the available history, indicating consistent compliance with statutory roadworthiness standards. Recorded mileage rose from 75,953 miles at the 5 August 2022 test to 90,321 miles by 29 July 2023, then 100,482 miles on 19 July 2024 and 110,584 miles on 24 July 2025. This equates to roughly 8,500 miles per year, typical for a 2013 vehicle of this class. The clean record across five entries shows no sparse gaps or abrupt accumulation, though the duplicate 29 July 2023 entries (a fail and pass on the same day at identical mileage) suggest a retest following administrative or minor correction rather than a substantive defect. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and calipers, given the car is now 13 years old and past 110,000 miles. The MOT history flags no corrosion or structural concerns, but DVSA tests record only visible failings at the time of testing. Prior owners maintained statutory intervals without lapse, yet absence of advisories does not confirm component life remaining. Examine exhaust emissions, tyre sidewall condition, and underbody structural integrity before purchase.
