2021 Vauxhall Astra 1.2L Petrol · J3 PFA

The vehicle presents a clean roadworthiness profile, as evidenced by the most recent MOT test on 14 May 2026 at 20,071 miles which passed with no recorded defects. The data indicates a stable maintenance trend over the last three years, with the car consistently meeting minimum standards without any mechanical or structural failures flagged by the DVSA testing equipment. The mileage pattern is notably low for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,000 miles per year. Between the May 2024 test at 12,581 miles and the May 2025 test at 15,882 miles, the car covered only 3,301 miles. This low annual usage suggests minimal wear on high-friction components like the clutch and brake system, though it also implies the vehicle may have sat for extended periods, which can occasionally lead to minor component degradation. A buyer should pay specific attention to the notes from the 2024 and 2025 tests where engine covers and underbody panels were noted as fitted and obscuring certain testable components. While the 2026 test passed without issue, a physical inspection should verify that these panels are not hiding early-stage fluid leaks or surface corrosion on the subframe. Given the low mileage, the inspector should also check for flat spots on tyres or cracking in rubber bushes and wiper blades, as these parts can age and perish regardless of the distance driven.
