2014 Vauxhall Astra 1.6L Diesel · FP14 DFG

The Vauxhall Astra presents as roadworthy following the most recent test on 18 June 2025 at 124,158 miles, where the tester recorded no defects and issued a pass. The maintenance trend across the supplied record is stable, with four consecutive passes between July 2022 and June 2025 showing no advisories or recorded faults. A single failure on 14 June 2025 at 123,972 miles carries no listed defects, suggesting an administrative or non-mechanical rejection rather than a worn component, and the vehicle passed cleanly four days later. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a 2014 vehicle, averaging roughly 10,346 miles per year against the 124,158 miles recorded. The owner added 16,892 miles between the July 2022 test at 80,600 miles and the June 2024 test at 107,254 miles, then a further 16,804 miles to the June 2025 pass, reflecting steady annual use with no sudden accumulation spikes or prolonged standing gaps. The DVSA data is sparse on fault detail, with every entry listing no defects, so the history offers little evidence of deferred consumable or structural upkeep. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the car's twelve-year age and six-figure mileage, as MOT passes with zero advisories do not confirm absence of wear below test thresholds. Examine underside structural integrity and exhaust emissions hardware for corrosion, particularly around subframes and sills exposed to winter road salt since 2014. The clean record implies prior owners addressed roadworthiness formally, but the 2025 failure with no defects warrants confirmation that no latent brake binding or tyre condition issue was overlooked at the retest.
