2015 Vauxhall Movano 2.3L Diesel · DT15 ERO

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent test in February 2026 at 94,471 miles. This represents a significant improvement in maintenance standards compared to the major failure in September 2023. While the vehicle previously exhibited multiple mechanical and safety defects, it has since completed three consecutive annual tests without any recorded defects, suggesting that the previously identified issues were addressed and the current maintenance trend is stable. The mileage pattern indicates consistent but light usage for an eleven-year-old van, averaging approximately 8,600 miles per year. There is a notable period of inactivity between June 2024 and February 2025, where the vehicle covered only 172 miles over eight months. However, usage increased recently with 1,236 miles recorded between the February 2025 and 2026 tests. This suggests the vehicle may have sat stationary for extended periods, which can often lead to the degradation of rubber components and surface corrosion despite the low overall mileage. A buyer should conduct a close inspection of the braking system, despite the clean record since the 2023 failure. The previous failure flagged binding offside rear brakes, corroded discs, and perished caliper slider bolt boots. A physical check should verify that the calipers move freely and that the discs do not show signs of renewed pitting. Additionally, given the history of a stiff bonnet catch and a missing seat belt buckle, the interior trim and secondary security mechanisms should be tested to ensure no other safety-related items remain unaddressed.
