2015 Vauxhall Antara 2.2L Diesel · AF15 CKX

The Vauxhall Antara presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 15 December 2025 at 65,626 miles, with the maintenance trend stable across the recorded history. The December 2025 test shows a pass and a same-day fail with no defects logged, a pattern repeated at the December 2023 test where the car failed then passed three days later at identical mileage of 53,355. Such paired entries with zero recorded defects point to administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than any mechanical fault, and no advisories or failures for corrosion, suspension bushes, brake discs, or emissions appear anywhere in the chain. Annual mileage sits low at roughly 5,966 per year against an eleven-year life, with the odometer reading 53,355 in December 2023, 60,160 in December 2024, and 65,626 in December 2025. The gaps show consistent yearly use of around 5,000 to 6,500 miles and no sudden accumulation that would accelerate drivetrain or consumable wear. The clean record with no tyre, wiper, or exhaust defects logged across four years suggests the previous keeper kept the vehicle lightly used and presented it in testable condition, though the absence of advisories means worn items were either absent or not flagged. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion given the Antara's age and the risk of moisture trapped on a low-mileage car that may have stood for periods. The brake calipers, coil springs, and suspension arms warrant a physical check despite no tester flags, since MOT clean sheets do not confirm component life remaining. Verify the reason for the same-day fail-pass pairs with DVSA to rule out a mileage or identity mismatch before purchase.
