2021 Vauxhall Astra Griffin Edition Turbo 1.2L Petrol · LM21 AOV

The vehicle presents a clean MOT record with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 27 April 2026 at 23,361 miles resulted in a full pass with no recorded defects. This follows a previous pass on 26 July 2024 at 17,388 miles, which also showed no faults. The absence of any advisories or failures across these two examinations indicates consistent compliance with roadworthiness standards without recurring mechanical issues. Mileage accumulation is notably low for the vehicle's age, averaging approximately 4,672 miles per year based on the recorded 23,361 miles over nearly five years. The 5,973-mile increase between the July 2024 and April 2026 tests aligns with this light usage pattern. There are no indications of rapid mileage spikes or extended gaps between testing that might suggest neglect or periods of inactivity beyond the normal low annual average. A buyer should conduct a focused in-person inspection on components susceptible to age-related degradation rather than wear from high mileage. While the MOT history shows no brake or suspension faults, examine all suspension bushes and rubber gaiters for perishing, particularly if the car has stood unused for periods. Check the brake discs for surface corrosion and test for binding calipers, as light use can promote disc pitting. Inspect the underbody and wheel arches for any structural corrosion, paying attention to known Astra rust hotspots. Finally, verify tyre tread depth and condition, as original tyres on a low-mileage car may have hardened despite adequate tread depth. The clean MOT record is positive, but a thorough physical check remains essential for a vehicle with this usage profile.
