2008 Vauxhall Astra 1.7L Diesel · FL58 DMY

The 2008 Vauxhall Astra presents a stable roadworthiness status with no recorded defects across its five most recent MOT tests. The latest examination on 6 October 2025 at 80,019 miles returned a clean pass with no advisories, confirming the maintenance trend has remained consistent and free of escalating faults since at least 2021. Recorded mileage shows light use for an eighteen-year-old vehicle. The odometer advanced from 59,745 miles in the 22 September 2021 test to 80,019 miles by October 2025, a total of 20,274 miles over four years, averaging roughly 5,000 miles annually. The gaps between tests are uniform at around twelve months with no abrupt accumulation or standing periods evident in the data; the history is sparse but entirely clean. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and corrosion points beneath the sills and subframes, as the MOT record does not flag these but age-related rust is common on Vauxhall bodies of this era. The tester logged no suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, or exhaust emissions concerns across the timeline, yet worn components can develop between annual tests without detection. Given the low mileage and fault-free history, previous owners appear to have maintained the vehicle to a basic passing standard rather than addressing wear preemptively. Verify the condition of tyres, wiper blades, and fluid levels in person, and confirm the mileage is genuine against service records before purchase.
