2007 Vauxhall Astra 1.7L Diesel · KJ07 NKC

The Vauxhall Astra presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 21 January 2026 at 143,529 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean results across the available history. The recorded mileage shows consistent annual use. From the January 2023 test at 108,523 miles, the car covered roughly 10,000 miles to the January 2024 pass at 118,526 miles, then 11,015 miles to January 2025 at 129,541 miles, and 13,988 miles to the January 2026 test. This equates to about 7,554 miles per year across its 19-year life, which is typical for the age. The only anomaly is a failed test on 23 January 2024 at 118,510 miles with no defects listed, immediately followed the same day by a pass at 118,526 miles; this suggests an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault. No advisories or defects appear in any test, so the record gives no direct signal of worn suspension bushes, corroded structure, or failing brake components. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of the underside for structural rust, check the condition of coil springs and damper mounts, and measure brake disc and pad wear given the car's mileage. The clean MOT trail implies previous owners kept basic statutory compliance in order, but it does not certify component life beyond the test date.
