2011 Vauxhall Movano 2.3L Diesel · CV61 FWW

The Vauxhall Movano presents a currently roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on 6 November 2023 at 313,428 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend across the available history is stable, showing clean passes in 2021 and 2023 and no outstanding advisories. The single failure on 27 October 2022 at 246,707 miles is anomalous, as the record lists no defects and the vehicle passed again the same day on a retest, suggesting an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault. At roughly 15 years old the van carries 313,428 miles, an average of about 20,895 miles per year, which is high for its age and points to sustained commercial use. Mileage climbed from 234,767 at the 5 November 2021 test to 246,707 by 27 October 2022, then jumped to 313,428 by 6 November 2023, an accumulation of over 66,000 miles in the final year that signals heavy recent duty. The record is sparse, with only four entries and no advisories, so it offers limited insight into wear patterns but shows no escalation of faults. Given the high mileage and the 2022 same-day fail with no listed defect, a buyer should verify the reason for that rejection with DVSA and confirm the vehicle was not withdrawn for a concealed issue. The absence of advisories across all tests does not mean components are sound. At this mileage the front suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and calipers will likely show fatigue even if not yet at failure limits. A physical inspection should target structural integrity around chassis rails and subframes for corrosion, and check the exhaust emissions system for diesel soot loading. The drivetrain, having covered 313,428 miles, warrants a cold-start and load test to expose any turbo or clutch wear the MOT would not record.
