2019 Vauxhall Astra 1.4L Petrol · FV68 OCE

This Vauxhall Astra presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent record of passing its MOT tests. The most recent inspection on 30 August 2025 at 35,147 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a similar clean result in September 2024, indicating the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that meets DVSA requirements without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is notably low for a seven year old vehicle, averaging roughly 5,021 miles per year. The progression from 18,828 miles in September 2022 to 35,147 miles in August 2025 shows a steady and predictable increase in usage. There are no erratic jumps in mileage that would suggest undisclosed commercial use or periods of extreme neglect. A failure recorded on 7 September 2024 was resolved immediately on the same day, though the lack of listed defects suggests a minor administrative or lighting issue rather than a mechanical failure. Because the MOT history is exceptionally clean, there are no specific recurring faults such as suspension bush wear or brake disc corrosion to flag. However, the low annual mileage increases the risk of components degrading due to inactivity. A buyer should manually check for tyre flat-spotting or perished rubber seals and ensure the brake calipers are not seizing from lack of use. The absence of any advisories regarding structural integrity or exhaust emissions over the last five years is a positive indicator of the car's general health. Given the lack of documented wear on consumables, a physical inspection should focus on the current depth of the tyre treads and the condition of the engine oil to confirm that service intervals were followed regardless of the low mileage.
