2021 Vauxhall Movano 2.3L Diesel · FP71 HPJ

The 2025‑10‑29 MOT at 47,680 miles resulted in a pass, confirming that the vehicle currently meets the DVSA roadworthiness criteria. The preceding 2025‑10‑24 failure at the same mileage recorded identical tyre cuts and an oil leak, indicating that the issues were addressed before the latest test but the recurring tyre damage points to inconsistent maintenance. The oil leak was noted as not excessive (8.4.1 (a) (i)). Mileage progression shows a modest 4‑mile increase between 4 Nov 2024 (37,288 mi) and 26 Nov 2024 (37,292 mi), followed by a rapid rise to 47,680 mi by 24 Oct 2025, a gain of over 10,000 miles in roughly ten months, well above the typical 5,000 mi per year for a five‑year‑old Movano, and no further mileage accumulation occurred in the five days before the 29 Oct test. A buyer should therefore inspect the tyre sidewalls for perishing and cuts, verify the oil leak’s source and level, examine suspension bushes, coil springs and shock absorbers for binding or excessive wear, assess brake discs and calipers for scoring or binding, look for structural rust on the chassis and wheel arches, confirm the registration plate lamp and engine MIL operate correctly, and check the exhaust system for corrosion or leaks.
