2011 Vauxhall Astravan 1.9L Diesel · FN11 XNS

The Vauxhall Astravan presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 31 October 2025 at 181,489 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the two prior annual tests in October 2024 and November 2023 also passed clean. The vehicle shows no recurring advisories or mechanical faults across the available record, indicating consistent compliance with statutory roadworthiness standards over the past three years. Mileage stands at 181,489 as of the October 2025 test, equating to roughly 12,100 miles per year since the 2011 build. The record shows steady accumulation: 160,444 miles at the September 2023 failure, 160,461 by the November 2023 pass, 168,622 at both the October 2024 fail and pass, and 181,489 by October 2025. The two failed tests in 2023 and 2024 recorded no defects, suggesting administrative or presentation issues rather than mechanical fault, though the buyer should clarify the exact cause with the testing station. Given the clean MOT history and absence of flagged corrosion, suspension wear, or brake defects, the previous owner appears to have maintained basic statutory compliance. At 15 years old and 181,000 miles, the high mileage implies consumable components such as coil springs, suspension bushes, brake discs, and exhaust emissions systems will have endured substantial cycle loading despite no current advisories. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity, underbody corrosion, and drivetrain condition. The sparse record offers no insight into intermediate servicing, so verify cambelt history, fluid changes, and tyre age in person before purchase.
