2015 Vauxhall Astra 1.6L Diesel · TFE 11

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, showing a clear trend of improving maintenance standards. The most recent test conducted in November 2025 at 101,962 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the current owner has addressed previous concerns. This follows a clean result from November 2024, suggesting the Astra is currently being maintained to a mechanically sound standard without immediate regulatory failures. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a typical eleven-year-old Vauxhall, averaging approximately 9,200 miles per annum. There is a notable increase in usage between October 2022 and October 2023, where the car covered over 11,500 miles in a single year. However, the usage since moderated back to a steady pace, with roughly 3,400 miles recorded annually. This consistent operation suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of stagnation which often leads to seized components or fluid degradation. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the tyre condition noted during the October 2023 test at 94,119 miles. The tester flagged both offside and nearside front tyres as worn to the limit alongside a perished nearside rear tyre. While the subsequent clean passes suggest these were replaced, the edge wear on the front tyres previously indicated potential alignment issues or worn suspension bushes. Given the vehicle is now well into over 100,000 miles, a thorough check of the coil springs and shock absorbers is necessary to ensure no structural play has developed since the last inspection.
