Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The overall roadworthiness of the 2004 VAUXHALL ASTRA is currently PASSING , as evidenced by the most recent MOT test on 2026-06-17. The vehicle has maintained a consistent improving trend across all recorded tests, with no evidence of a deterioration in performance. The most recent test on 2026-06-17 at 90,180 miles was passed with no defects, indicating that the vehicle's mechanical integrity has remained stable since 2016. The mileage pattern shows a stable accumulation rate of approximately 4,099 miles per year, which is low for a 22-year-old model. This suggests the vehicle may have been used less frequently or has been parked for extended periods, rather than experiencing rapid wear on consumables like tyres or brakes. The data is clean and consistent, with no gaps in the record that would suggest a sudden drop in mileage or a significant accumulation of wear that would immediately require inspection. A buyer should inspect the vehicle for structural integrity and brake conditions during a formal visit. Given the stable history, the primary concerns are the suspension bushings and the binding calipers, which have been tested repeatedly. While the brakes have not exhibited binding issues, it is prudent to verify the condition of the brake discs and caliper binding after the 2026-06-17 test to ensure the system is still functionally sound for safe road use.
