2007 Vauxhall Astra 1.9L Diesel · SW57 CVT

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status based on the most recent inspection data. The latest MOT conducted on 27 February 2025 at 103,373 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following a technical failure just one mile prior. This pattern suggests the owner is proactive in rectifying immediate issues to maintain legal compliance. The lack of recurring advisories across the last three tests indicates that the primary mechanical and structural components have remained within acceptable tolerances during the testing intervals. At 19 years old, the recorded mileage of 103,373 miles represents an average of approximately 5,440 miles per year. This is significantly below the national average for a petrol, which typically suggests lower wear on the drivetrain and engine components. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with roughly 6,400 miles covered between February 2023 and February 2024, and another 4,300 miles covered in the following year. While low mileage often preserves mechanical parts, it can lead to the degradation of rubber-based components and fluid seals due to periods of inactivity. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis, particularly the rear subframe and sills, where these models are prone to corrosion over two decades. Despite the clean MOT history, the age of the vehicle necessitates a close look at suspension bushes and control arm bolts for cracking. Given the technical failures recorded in 2024 and 2025 that were resolved immediately, the buyer should verify that the specific components causing those minor failures were properly replaced rather than just temporarily adjusted.
