2016 Vauxhall Astra 1.6L Diesel · FJ66 BCK

The vehicle remains roadworthy; the most recent MOT on 24 March 2026 at 64,162 miles passed without any recorded defects, and the uninterrupted series of passes over the past seven years indicates a stable maintenance pattern. Mileage averages roughly 6,400 miles per annum, a figure that sits comfortably within typical usage for a ten‑year‑old Astra. Between the 12 September 2025 test at 58,632 miles and the 28 August 2024 test at 55,952 miles the increase was just under 3,000 miles in twelve months, mirroring the gradual accrual seen in earlier intervals (e.g., 51,012 miles in September 2023 and 48,995 miles in December 2022). No abrupt spikes or prolonged gaps appear in the record, suggesting consistent, moderate use. While the MOT history shows no recurring faults, a prospective buyer should still examine wear items that are not captured by the test. Verify tyre tread depth and sidewall condition, inspect brake pads and discs for uneven wear, and feel for any play in the front and rear suspension bushes and coil springs. A visual check for surface rust, especially around wheel arches and undercarriage, and a brief assessment of exhaust emissions will confirm that no hidden deterioration has emerged since the last test. Given the clean MOT track and modest mileage, the Astra presents as mechanically sound, provided the buyer confirms the condition of consumables and ensures no early signs of structural corrosion are present during a physical inspection.
