2007 Vauxhall Astra 1.2L Diesel · H16 VAC

The Vauxhall Astra presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 8 December 2025 at 67,934 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing a clean run that began after the single failure in late 2023. The vehicle shows no worsening mechanical faults across the available record, and the absence of advisories in the last three passes suggests the previous keeper addressed any minor wear before each examination. Recorded mileage stands at 67,934 miles against a 2007 build, an average of roughly 3,575 miles per year. The history confirms light use: the car covered only 1,302 miles between the November 2022 test at 62,977 miles and the December 2024 test at 64,279 miles, then 3,655 miles to the December 2025 test. A notable gap appears between the 31 October 2023 pass and the 3 November 2022 pass, with just 973 miles added, and the 30 October 2023 failure at identical mileage of 63,950 suggests a re-test the following day after a clerical or presentation issue rather than a repair of recorded defects, since no faults were listed. The sparse MOT data gives no flagged suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or structural corrosion to chase. Buyers should still inspect the underside for corrosion typical of a 19 year old Vauxhall, check suspension components for perishing from long standing periods, and verify brake calipers are free given the low annual mileage. The clean record implies conscientious basic upkeep, but a physical inspection remains essential to confirm hidden wear not captured by the tester.
