2010 Vauxhall Astra 1.6L Petrol · SA60 ABV

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate issued on 30 April 2025 at 93,224 miles, indicating a stable and clean maintenance trend. Although the record shows a failed test on the same day as the final pass, the absence of recorded defects suggests a minor administrative error or a transient issue that was rectified immediately. The lack of recurring advisories across the last four years points to a vehicle that has been maintained to a consistent standard, with no evidence of systemic mechanical neglect or chronic structural deterioration. Accumulating 93,224 miles over a sixteen-year period results in an average of approximately 5,800 miles per annum, which is well below the national average for a Vauxhall Astra of this vintage. The mileage progression remains linear and predictable, with consistent annual increases between 5,000 and 7,000 miles recorded in the tests from May 2022 through to April 2025. This usage pattern suggests the car has been driven regularly rather than left standing for extended periods, which typically helps prevent the premature degradation of seals, gaskets, and fuel system components often seen in low-mileage examples. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these components often reach the end of their service life on an Astra of this age despite a clean MOT history. While the test records show no issues with brake performance, you should verify the thickness of the discs and pads, as MOT testers only assess braking efficiency rather than the remaining life of these consumables. Check the sills and rear wheel arches for early signs of corrosion, as structural integrity is the primary concern for a vehicle of this age, even when the mechanical systems appear to be performing well.
