2007 Vauxhall Astra 1.4L Petrol · FN57 LXT

The Vauxhall Astra shows a current roadworthy status with a passed test recorded on 22 November 2021 at 125,773 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable on paper, as the most recent examination raised no defects. However, the prior test on 13 November 2021 at 125,628 miles failed with no defects logged, a contradictory entry that suggests an administrative or data-recording anomaly rather than a genuine mechanical fault. The recorded mileage of 125,773 against a 2007 build date gives an average of roughly 6,620 miles per year, which is typical for a vehicle of this age. The history spans only two tests eleven days apart in November 2021, with just 145 miles accrued between them. This sparse record offers little insight into long-term care, and the absence of earlier entries means wear on consumables and structural items across the preceding seventeen years remains undocumented. A buyer should physically inspect the suspension bushes, coil springs, and subframe for corrosion given the vehicle's nineteen-year age and unknown service background. The brake discs and calipers warrant checking for binding or uneven wear, as no recent test has verified their condition since the 2021 pass. Exhaust emissions and structural integrity should be confirmed with a fresh test, since the last recorded examination is now over four years old relative to today's date of 8 July 2026. The unexplained fail-with-no-defects entry from November 2021 justifies a full independent inspection before purchase.
