2016 Vauxhall Movano 2.3L Diesel · FH65 CWZ

The Vauxhall Movano presents a broadly roadworthy status as of the most recent test on 2 June 2025 at 133,078 miles, where the vehicle passed with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend across the available history is stable, with every annual examination from December 2021 through to June 2025 returning a pass and no advisories logged at any stage. A failed test on the same date as the June 2025 pass, at identical mileage and with no defects cited, points to an administrative or presentation issue at the testing station rather than a mechanical fault. Recorded mileage rose from 109,294 in December 2021 to 117,034 by December 2022, then 124,449 in December 2023, and 133,078 by June 2025. That averages close to 13,300 miles per year, which is high for a ten-year-old van and reflects steady commercial use rather than long idle periods. The gap between the December 2023 and June 2025 tests stretches beyond twelve months, yet the increment of 8,629 miles over eighteen months sits in line with the longer-term pattern. The DVSA data itself is sparse on faults, showing clean sheets throughout and giving no cause to suspect skipped consumable replacements from the record alone. Given the absence of any flagged advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or structural corrosion, the MOT file implies the previous keeper kept the van to a passable standard. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of the underbody for rust, check the condition of tyres and wiper blades that the tester did not need to note, and verify the brake calipers are free from binding after sustained mileage. The duplicated June 2025 entry warrants a check of the V5C and test certificate to confirm the pass is the live result. At 133,078 miles the drivetrain and chassis have absorbed above-average load for the model year. The clean MOT trail offers reassurance, but high annual coverage on a 2016 Movano means in-person scrutiny of exhaust emissions, steering joints, and load-bearing mounts remains prudent before purchase.
