Does high mileage mean more Vauxhall Movano MOT failures at the same age?

At ages 15+, 36.1% of Vauxhall Movanos with 40,000 to 70,000 miles failed first time, against 47.4% of those with over 140,000 miles (2024, n = 921). No clear mileage gap inside this age group, among cars still being tested.

Vauxhall Movano MOT: quick answers

What is the Vauxhall Movano first-time MOT pass rate?

61.5% of first attempts passed in 2024 (4,473 tests). Retests after repair are excluded; cars fixed at the test centre (PRS) are shown separately.

Why does this number differ from other sites?

Other sites may count retests or all attempts. This page uses 4,473 primary tests: 38.52% failed first time and 67.9% passed when cars fixed at the test centre (PRS) count as passes. The age-adjusted MOT Risk Index 124.7 is shown separately.
