2012 Vauxhall Astra 1.6L Petrol · FP61 LFH

The 2026-03-01 MOT at 114,102 miles recorded a clean pass with no defects, indicating that the vehicle’s maintenance trend remains stable and no recurring mechanical faults have emerged since the previous assessment. The mileage has risen from 76,067 miles in March 2023 to 114,102 miles in March 2026, averaging about 8,150 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage for a 14‑year‑old Astra. The intervals between tests show steady accumulation, with the largest jump occurring between the February 2024 and February 2025 recordings, adding roughly 9,200 miles in a single year, yet no evidence of neglect or abrupt mileage spikes is evident. A buyer should therefore focus on the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, check for binding rear brake calipers and worn brake discs, examine the exhaust system for corrosion and ensure structural integrity of the chassis, particularly around the wheel arches and sills, as these components are prone to wear despite the clean MOT history. Overall, the vehicle presents a consistent maintenance record with no documented defects, but a thorough physical inspection of the highlighted mechanical areas is advisable before purchase.
