VAUXHALL VIVARO2015 · 1.6L Diesel

The Vauxhall Vivaro presents a currently valid roadworthiness status with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the July 2025 test cycle. On 2025-07-28 the vehicle first failed then passed at 79,706 miles with no defects recorded on either outcome. This duplicate fail-pass pattern repeats identically on 2024-08-08 at 73,470 miles and contrasts with a straightforward pass on 2023-08-03 at 67,084 miles. The absence of any recorded advisories across three consecutive annual tests indicates no escalating mechanical concerns. Mileage accumulation aligns with typical use for an eleven-year-old light commercial vehicle. The odometer advanced from 67,084 miles in August 2023 to 73,470 miles by August 2024, then to 79,706 miles by July 2025, equating to roughly 6,200 to 6,400 miles per year. Such low annual coverage suggests gentle duty cycles rather than fleet hard use. The sparse but clean record shows no gaps exceeding twelve months between tests, implying the keeper maintained statutory testing discipline despite the anomalous fail entries. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural and consumable components that a fault-free MOT does not expose. The tester flagged no corrosion on chassis members, no worn suspension bushes, and no binding calipers, yet the Vivaro's age makes underbody rust and degraded rubber mounts plausible. We recommend scrutinising the front subframe for structural integrity, checking rear coil springs for fatigue, and measuring brake disc thickness at all corners. The repeated same-day fail without listed defects points to administrative anomalies rather than mechanical lapse; verify the V5C and MOT certificate to confirm the entries reflect genuine test outcomes.
