2010 Vauxhall Astra 1.6L Petrol · YE60 KXK

The Vauxhall Astra presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent test on 17 September 2025 at 133,622 miles returning a pass with no defects recorded. Prior annual tests in October 2024 and October 2023 also produced clean passes. The vehicle shows no escalating faults across its documented history, indicating consistent baseline upkeep rather than deferred repairs. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical rate for a 2010 vehicle, averaging roughly 8,351 miles per year against the 133,622 miles recorded. The jump from 96,488 miles at the October 2023 test to 121,516 miles by October 2024 reflects about 25,000 miles in twelve months, above the annual average but not abnormal for a commuter hatchback. From October 2024 to September 2025 the car covered only 12,106 miles. The record is sparse, with no advisories or defects logged on any pass, so no wear patterns can be inferred from the data alone. Two failed tests appear on 3 October 2023 at 96,457 miles and 5 October 2024 at 121,515 miles, each immediately followed by a pass at near-identical mileage with no defects listed. This pattern suggests administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical faults, as the retests recorded no corrections. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and calipers, and underbody corrosion given the car is sixteen years old. Given the absence of recorded advisories across five years, previous owners likely addressed consumables before each test. The clean 2025 result supports structural integrity at this stage, but rubber components and exhaust emissions should be verified in person before purchase.
