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

The vehicle currently holds a positive roadworthiness status, showing a stable maintenance trend over the last several years. The most recent recorded test conducted in January 2022 resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following an initial failure on the same day. This suggests that a specific issue was identified and rectified immediately prior to the successful inspection, and the car has since maintained a clean record without further failures or advisories in the database. The mileage pattern indicates consistent and relatively low usage for a vehicle of this age. Between 2019 and 2021, the Astra covered approximately 12,000 miles, which equates to roughly 6,000 miles per annum. This is well below the UK national average, suggesting the car has not been subjected to heavy commuting. However, because there is no mileage data provided for the 2022 test, it is impossible to determine the current own reading or if the vehicle has sat for long periods or seen high mileage in the last four years. A prospective buyer should focus their in-person inspection on the suspension components and braking system, as these are common wear points on this era of Astra. While the history shows no structural advisories, the age of the vehicle means that rubber bushes and control arm bolts should be checked for cracking or excessive play. It is also advisable to verify the condition of the brake discs and pads, given that the initial failure in early 2022 may have Certification related to a component that required immediate attention to meet the safety standard.
