2011 VAUXHALL ANTARA2.0L Diesel

The vehicle is currently in a stable state of roadworthiness, having passed its most recent MOT on 11 January 2025 at 80,225 miles. This test was clean with no defects recorded. A pattern of immediate re-tests is evident, as the car failed on 8 January 2025 and again on 2 January 2024, though the records do not specify the exact faults that caused these failures. The mileage is exceptionally low for a 2011 model, averaging roughly 5,348 miles per year. There was a significant increase in usage between January 2024 and January 2025, where the odometer rose from 67,334 to 80,225 miles. This jump of nearly 13,000 miles in a single year contrasts sharply with the previous period between January 2023 and January 2024, which saw only 1,925 miles added. The absence of recorded advisories across the last three passing tests suggests a well-maintained vehicle or one that has had preventative work carried out. However, the low overall mileage and periods of light use increase the risk of perished rubber components and seized brake calipers. A physical inspection should focus on the condition of the suspension bushes and the presence of any surface corrosion on the chassis or sills, as these are common weak points for this age of Vauxhall. A buyer should verify the service history to ensure oil changes were performed regardless of the low annual mileage. Given the recent spike in usage, checking the remaining tread on the tyres and the thickness of the brake discs is advisable to determine if the increased mileage has accelerated the wear of these consumables.
