2007 Vauxhall Astra 1.8L Petrol · KA07 FON

The 2007 Vauxhall Astra is presently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 29 August 2023 at 124,362 miles with no defects recorded. The consecutive annual tests from August 2021 through August 2023 show a stable maintenance record, with no evidence of recurring faults or deteriorating condition. Mileage accumulation has been steady, rising by roughly 976 miles each year, from 121,486 miles in August 2021 to 124,362 miles in August 2023, which aligns with the typical 6,545 miles per year expected for a 19‑year‑old vehicle. The interval between tests is approximately one year, indicating consistent use and regular inspection, and there are no unusually long gaps that might mask emerging problems. A buyer should therefore focus on mechanical components that commonly develop wear despite a clean MOT: suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of cracking or corrosion, rear brake calipers for binding, brake discs for scoring, and the chassis for rust especially around wheel arches and subframes. The exhaust system and emission levels should also be examined, as the last test was over three years ago and minor leaks can develop unnoticed. Tyre tread and wiper condition are consumable items that merit visual checks, but the absence of recorded defects suggests the vehicle has been well cared for.
