2007 Vauxhall Astra 1.2L Diesel · MM07 YFH

The Vauxhall Astra shows a broadly stable maintenance trend with no recorded defects across its available MOT history, the most recent test being a pass on 27 April 2022 at 153,100 miles. The duplicate failed entries logged on the same dates in 2022 and 2019 carry no defects, which points to administrative rejections rather than mechanical faults. On the evidence, the vehicle has not displayed worsening or recurring roadworthiness issues over the four-year span covered by the record. Recorded mileage rose from 132,836 in September 2018 to 137,637 by September 2019, then to 153,100 by April 2022. That equates to roughly 4,800 miles in the first year and 15,463 miles across the following thirty-one months, an average close to the 8,058 miles per year typical for a 2007 car. A near three-year gap separates the last test from today's date of 8 July 2026, leaving the current condition unverified by MOT data. The clean advisory history means no specific suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or corrosion items were flagged for the buyer to chase. The absence of defects suggests previous owners kept basic consumable wear within test limits, though the same owners allowed the vehicle to stand unused for extended periods given the sparse test frequency. A purchaser should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity, underbody rust, and binding calipers, as a 19-year-old Vauxhall is prone to hidden deterioration that a no-defect MOT will not capture. Confirm the reason for the 2022 and 2019 failed entries with DVSA to rule out undocumented rectification work before completion.
