2011 Ford Galaxy 2.0L Diesel · FN61 XNK

The 2011 Ford Galaxy presents a currently roadworthy status following a pass on 11 November 2025 at 134,898 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the three most recent annual cycles. The vehicle cleared the November 2025 test with no defects recorded after a same-day failure on 11 November 2025 that listed no defects, a pattern repeated on 5 and 6 November 2024 where a no-defect failure preceded a clean pass. The November 2023 test at 115,852 miles also passed with no advisories. This sequence shows no worsening mechanical condition and no recurring faults across the record. Annual mileage sits at roughly 8,993 per year against the 134,898 total, which is typical for a fifteen-year-old vehicle of this class. The records show steady accumulation: 115,852 miles in November 2023, 126,884 in November 2024, and 134,898 in November 2025, giving about 11,000 miles between the 2023 and 2024 tests and 8,014 over the following year. The data is sparse and clean, with no advisories or consumable wear items flagged at any point, suggesting the previous keeper maintained basic test compliance though the same-day fail-pass pairs imply administrative or presentation issues rather than mechanical neglect. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the age and mileage, as the MOT record logs no advisories that would reveal incremental wear. The repeated no-defect failures on consecutive days in both 2024 and 2025 warrant scrutiny of the test centre's process and confirmation the V5C and failure documentation match. Structural integrity and underbody corrosion should be physically checked, since DVSA testers recorded nothing but the history offers no insight into hidden rust. The Galaxy requires no immediate remedial action from the record itself, yet the absence of any advisories across three years at this mileage is unusual for a 2011 MPV. Verify in person that tyres, wiper blades, and exhaust emissions meet road standards despite the clean sheets, and treat the same-day fail-pass entries as a prompt to validate the vehicle's full service history before purchase.
