2020 Vauxhall Movano L2H2 F3500 Cdti S/S 2.3L Diesel · DX20 BOJ

The vehicle is roadworthy as of the 22 June 2026 MOT, where it passed despite a failure recorded on 15 June 2026 at the same mileage. The recent pass shows the car meets the statutory safety criteria, yet the recurrence of engine MIL faults and brake‑pipe corrosion indicates a pattern of persistent, though not escalating, deficiencies. Across six years the odometer has risen from 8,555 mi in June 2023 to 22,532 mi in June 2026, averaging roughly 3,800 mi per year. This low annual mileage suggests light use rather than any period of intensive travel, and the record shows no abrupt mileage spikes between tests. The consistency of annual June inspections further confirms a regular MOT schedule with no evident gaps. A prospective buyer should give particular attention to the off‑side brake pipe, which has been flagged as corroded and greased in both the 2026 tests. Verifying the integrity of the pipe and surrounding fittings is essential. The rear brake pads were noted as thin in the 15 June 2026 failure, so a thorough inspection of pad thickness and disc condition is advisable. Tyre health also warrants close scrutiny: the near‑side rear tyre exhibited a cut deep enough to reach the ply in the 2026 failure, and both front and rear tyres have been cited for tread wear close to legal limits. Confirming that the tyres meet minimum tread depth and are free of cuts will mitigate immediate safety concerns. Finally, the repeated engine MIL fault recorded in 2023 and again in 2026 suggests an intermittent electronic or sensor issue; a diagnostic scan to clear any stored codes and ensure the fault does not reappear would be prudent before finalising purchase.
