2011 Vauxhall Antara 2.2L Diesel · SW11 AAY

The 2011 Vauxhall Antara with 91,000 miles demonstrates a stable roadworthiness trend, with the most recent MOT on 2025-05-16 confirming no defects at 91,000 miles. A failed test on 2024-11-04 at 90,025 miles was resolved within two days, as evidenced by the subsequent pass on 2024-11-06 at 90,028 miles. No recurring mechanical issues were recorded across the five tests, suggesting consistent maintenance. The absence of advisories or critical failures in the latest evaluation indicates the vehicle remains compliant with safety standards. The mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a 15-year-old vehicle, averaging 6,067 miles annually. Tests spaced approximately 12 months apart from 2022 to 2025 reveal no abrupt spikes or prolonged inactivity, which might otherwise signal neglect. The 90,025–90,028 mile gap between the failed and passed 2024 tests suggests minimal movement, potentially reflecting short-term storage or infrequent use. However, the lack of corrosion, suspension, or brake-related defects in the record implies the vehicle has not suffered from extended standing. A buyer should inspect the suspension components, particularly the rear coil springs and bushes, for signs of wear given the car’s age. The brake system, including calipers and discs, warrants scrutiny for binding or uneven wear, as these can develop over time. The exhaust system should also be checked for rust or leaks, as corrosion is common in older vehicles. While the MOT history shows no major issues, the November 2024 failed test highlights the need for a thorough mechanical inspection to confirm the resolution of any underlying faults.
