2016 Vauxhall Astra 1.4L Petrol · GU12 BEC

The vehicle remains in a roadworthy condition with a stable maintenance trend over the last three years. The most recent MOT test on 18 November 2025 at 68,085 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, despite a failure entry on the same day. This initial failure entry likely represents a minor administrative error or a trivial item that was rectified immediately, as no specific mechanical or structural faults were noted in the record for that date. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-mileage commuter vehicle, averaging approximately 6,800 miles per annum. Between the March 2022 test at 48,354 miles and the November 2024 test at 60,899 miles, the car covered 12,545 miles, showing a steady usage profile. The subsequent interval of 7,186 miles leading to the November 2025 test maintains this consistent trend. This low cumulative mileage generally suggests less wear and tear on drivetrain components and suspension assemblies compared to high-mileage examples. Since the MOT history shows no recurring mechanical failures or structural corrosion issues, a buyer should still perform a physical inspection of common Vauxhall Astra wear points. Focus on the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, which can perish or fatigue out regardless of low mileage. Check the brake discs for signs of pitting or thinning, as vehicles that travel short distances often suffer from surface oxidation. Inspect the chassis for any early signs of rust that the MOT tester may not have flagged as an advisory yet.
