2018 Vauxhall Astra 1.4L Petrol · SC67 AFJ

The most recent MOT on 25 June 2025 at 41,001 miles recorded a Pass with no defects, indicating the vehicle remains roadworthy. Across four consecutive annual tests the absence of recorded failures suggests a stable maintenance record, with no evidence of deteriorating components. From its first recorded test on 7 April 2022 at 23,400 miles the Astra has accumulated just over 17,600 miles in eight years, averaging roughly 5,100 miles per annum – well below the typical usage for a vehicle of this age. Mileage rose modestly between April 2022 and June 2024, increasing 3,081 miles in the first year and 1,841 miles in the following fifteen months. The jump to 41,001 miles by June 2025 represents a 12,679‑mile gain in twelve months, a notable acceleration that may have placed additional wear on consumable items. Given the clean MOT history, a prospective buyer should focus the in‑person inspection on areas subject to accelerated wear. Verify tyre tread depth and uniformity, as the recent mileage surge could have reduced life expectancy. Inspect brake discs and pads for glazing or thinning, and check suspension bushings and coil springs for any signs of fatigue or uneven wear. A visual assessment of under‑body corrosion, exhaust system integrity, and steering rack play will confirm that the structural condition has kept pace with the increased use. Overall, the record reflects a vehicle that has been well maintained, but the latest mileage increase warrants a thorough check of wear‑prone components before purchase.
