2007 Vauxhall Astra 1.6L Petrol · KV07 AAU

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, having passed its most recent MOT on 17 May 2025 at 121,715 miles. This test was completed with no defects recorded, suggesting the car is in a mechanically sound state relative to its age. The history shows a pattern of clean passes, though the failure on 28 February 2025 indicates a brief period of non-compliance before the subsequent pass. The mileage is consistent with the age of the vehicle, averaging roughly 6,406 miles per year. There is a notable drop in usage recently; the car covered only 3,889 miles between December 2023 and May 2025. This low activity over the last eighteen months suggests the vehicle may have spent significant time stationary, which can lead to secondary issues such as battery degradation or perished rubber components. While the MOT record is unusually clean for a 2007 model, the lack of advisories over several years is atypical for a vehicle of this vintage. A buyer should specifically inspect the underbody for structural corrosion and check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these are common failure points for Astras that often go unmentioned if not critical at the time of testing. Verify the condition of the brake discs and pads to ensure no surface rust has developed during the recent period of low mileage. Checking for oil leaks around the engine bay and ensuring the exhaust system is secure will provide a more complete picture of the vehicle's health than the sparse MOT data suggests.
