2007 Vauxhall Astra 1.8L Petrol · FV57 UUT

The Vauxhall Astra presents as roadworthy following a clean pass on 2 September 2025 at 105,395 miles, with no defects logged. The maintenance trend is stable across the recorded history, showing no escalating faults or unresolved advisories. A prior failure on 26 August 2025 at 105,375 miles is anomalous as the tester recorded no defects, suggesting an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Mileage stands at 105,395 against a 2007 build, averaging roughly 5,547 miles per year. The car covered 8,741 miles between the August 2023 test (88,879 miles) and August 2024 (97,620 miles), then only 7,775 miles to September 2025. This low annual use implies light running but also probable long stationary periods, which heightens risk of perished rubber components and corrosion on unused structure. The record shows no flagged suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, binding calipers, or exhaust emissions issues across any test. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of subframe and sills for hidden rust, given the vehicle's age and low-use profile. Verify the August 2025 failure cause with DVSA, as a no-defect fail is irregular and warrants confirmation the car is genuinely uncompromised.
