2016 VAUXHALL VIVARO1.6L Diesel

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of passing tests. The most recent inspection conducted on 10 July 2025 at 71,621 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that the vehicle currently meets the minimum legal standards. While a failure was noted in July 2024, the immediate pass on the same day suggests that the owner was proactive in addressing any mechanical faults identified by the tester. The mileage pattern is consistent with a light-use commercial vehicle profile, averaging approximately 7,160 miles per annum. Between the July 2022 test at 49,716 miles and the July 2025 test at 71,621 miles, the vehicle covered 21,905 miles over three years. This steady accumulation suggests regular use which helps prevent seals and suspension components from seizing or common to low-mileage vehicles, though the low annual mileage can sometimes mask age-related degradation of rubber if the vehicle sits for long periods. Given the lack of recorded advisories in the most recent tests, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on common wear points for the Vauxhall Vivaro. Check the chassis for structural corrosion, particularly around the rear arches and exhaust supports, as the MOT record does not explicitly clear surface rust. Inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking or fatigue, as these often fail due to age despite low mileage. Additionally, verify the brake discs for signs of thinning or uneven pitting, as the record shows no history of binding caliper issues.
