VAUXHALL VIVARO2018 · 1.6L DIESEL

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by a clean result in the most recent inspection. Following a successful test in February 2026 at 84,750 miles, the unit passed with no defects recorded. This indicates that any mechanical or structural issues that caused the failure in early 2024 have been successfully rectified, and the vehicle has maintained a consistent standard of compliance over the last three testing cycles. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical commercial usage for this age, averaging approximately 10,600 miles per annum. Between the March 2023 test at 73,227 miles and the February 2026 test at 84,750 miles, the vehicle covered 11,523 miles. This steady rate suggests the van has been used regularly, which is often preferable for preventing breakdown degradation caused by long periods of standing. The lack of significant mileage spikes in the records supports a way maintenance schedule that aligns with the vehicle's annual service intervals. While the recent records are clear, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on common wear points for the Vauxhall Vivaro platform. Given the age and mileage, close attention must be paid to the suspension components, specifically coil springs and bushes, which often show accelerated wear on loaded vans. The braking system should also be evaluated for signs of binding calipers or uneven disc wear, as the 2024 failure indicates that mechanical components have required attention in the past. Checking the chassis for corrosion around the mounting points is essential to ensure structural integrity remains sound despite the clean MOT history.
