Lithuanian fleet: typical mileage
Home market data. Odometer distribution from Lithuanian technical inspections (TRANSEKSTA), using each car's latest reading. Kilometres. Computed from Opel-badged equivalents in the Lithuanian fleet; Vauxhall is the UK badge of the same model.
Based on N = 1,151 Lithuanian vehicles. Lietuvos techninės apžiūros įmonių asociacija TRANSEKSTA via data.gov.lt, CC BY 4.0.
Across 14,219 Lithuanian Vauxhall Vectra cars with two or more inspection readings, 41.1% show a later reading below an earlier one at some point, and 2.8% by more than 5,000 km. This is fleet level context from the inspection record, not a verdict on any individual car. Odometer week precision and data entry inflate the raw figure, which is why the larger drop share is shown alongside.
At initial technical inspection, 57.5% of 2005 Vauxhall Vectra cars failed first time (3,246 inspections). Source: TRANSEKSTA technical inspection open data (data.gov.lt dataset 2721).
What this is, and what it is not
These figures are an aggregate distribution across many Vauxhall Vectra cars of the 2005 model year, computed from UK DVSA MOT odometer readings used as a fleet proxy. The MOT dataset is anonymised and carries no VIN and no personal data.
It is not a per-VIN history. It cannot tell you the mileage of one specific car or whether a particular odometer was wound back. Use it as a sanity check: a reading far below the typical band for the age is a clue worth investigating, not proof of anything on its own.
To decode a specific VIN, use the free VIN decoder. For a per-VIN odometer pre-check against official READ-type readings (UK DVSA MOT, plus the Dutch RDW verdict when you add a plate), use the mileage & rollback check. For exactly how this band is computed and every source behind it, see the data methodology.
