Insight summary

Vauxhall Astravan is a rare model in this snapshot, with 5,174 represented vehicles and 0.01% of the active UK pool tracked by AutoRank. For the last 5 years, it has a pass rate of 67.3% from 64,380 MOT tests, with a reliability score of 42. The current pool shows an average of 157,446 miles and an average age of 17.2 years, while mature-fleet mileage is estimated at 157,455 miles. Diesel leads the fuel split, followed by petrol, and the most frequent defect themes are battery insecure but not likely to fall from carrier, windscreen damage and parking brake. The practical read is that the Vauxhall Astravan deserves a careful inspection before buying, because condition and maintenance appear to matter more than the badge.
