2013 Vauxhall Astra 1.4L Petrol · SA63 ABX

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent test in September 2025 at 73,263 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that the Astra currently meets all minimum safety standards. While a minor failure occurred in early September 2023 at 63,773 miles, the subsequent pass within a week suggests the owner was proactive in rectifying identified issues and maintained a high standard of upkeep thereafter. The mileage pattern is notably low for a thirteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,600 miles per annum. The data shows steady, consistent usage, with roughly 4,700 miles driven between the 2024 and 2025 tests and similarly 4,800 miles prior. This low mileage typically implies less mechanical strain on the drivetrain and engine compared to higher-average examples, though such low usage can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components or surface corrosion on brake discs if the car sits for extended periods. Given that the record shows no recurring structural or mechanical failures, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on age-related wear rather than high-mileage damage. Inspect the suspension bushes and coil spring mounts for cracking, as these materials perish over time regardless of the distance driven. Check the brake rotors for heavy pitting and ensure the tyres have not perished from age, as low-mileage history often hides dry rubber despite sufficient tread depth.
