2009 Vauxhall Movano 2.5L Diesel · FL59 YLO

The Vauxhall Movano passed its most recent MOT on 13 May 2024 at 150,566 miles with no defects recorded, indicating a currently roadworthy status. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the test history shows a recurring pattern of initial failures followed by rapid passes within days, with the April 2024 failure at 150,390 miles and the March 2023 failure at 143,886 miles both cleared without any defects logged on retest. This suggests administrative or presentation issues at test rather than progressive mechanical deterioration. The recorded mileage of 150,566 over roughly 17 years equates to about 8,857 miles per year, which is typical for a light commercial vehicle of this age. The records show steady annual accumulation: 137,615 miles in April 2022, 143,886 by March 2023, and 150,390 by April 2024. No excessive gaps or sudden mileage spikes appear in the data, and the sparse five-entry history with clean advisories gives little evidence of neglected consumable wear or deferred structural repairs. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's age and commercial loading history. The repeated fail-then-pass cycles without noted defects warrant verification that no outstanding advisory items such as corrosion to chassis members or exhaust emissions irregularities were overlooked by the tester. Given the Movano is now over two years past its last test date of May 2024, the next MOT is overdue and the vehicle cannot be legally driven until a current certificate is obtained. Prior to purchase, confirm structural integrity around sills and subframes and check for binding calipers or worn tyres that a cursory test may not have captured.
