2010 Vauxhall Antara Exclusiv Cdti 2.0L Diesel · IIG 6220

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean testing history in recent years. The most recent MOT on 30 August 2024 at 139,295 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of successful inspections dating back to 2021, suggesting the vehicle has been maintained sufficiently to meet minimum legal standards without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with a typical 16-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,700 miles per year. The record shows steady progression from 106,639 miles in August 2021 to 139,295 miles in August 2024. A brief period of inactivity or minimal usage is evident between the July 2022 failure and the subsequent pass, though the mileage gap between 2022 and 2024 remains regular. The single failure recorded on 14 July 2022 at 116,507 miles did not result in any noted defects, which may indicate a minor non-compliance that was rectified immediately prior to the successful retest five days later. While the MOT history is remarkably clean, the absence of advisories for wear-and-tear items does not guarantee the condition of consumables. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers, as these components often show wear before they trigger an MOT failure. Given the vehicle has surpassed the 135,000-mile mark, a thorough check of the brake discs and calipers for uneven wear or binding is advisable. The lack of structural corrosion or emissions issues in the recent records is a positive indicator of general upkeep. However, the buyer should still inspect the underbody for surface rust and check the condition of all rubber seals and hoses. The current mileage suggests the vehicle has been used for moderate, regular trips rather than short, stop-start urban cycles, which generally benefits the health of the engine and exhaust system.
