2016 Vauxhall Vivaro 1.6L Diesel · FJ16 AAN

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on recent MOT history. The most recent test on 6 February 2026 at 5,191 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to 2021, indicating that the vehicle has maintained a high standard of basic operational compliance over the last five years. The mileage recorded is exceptionally low for a 2016 model, averaging roughly 519 miles per year. Between February 2021 and February 2026, the vehicle covered only 1,599 miles. While the record shows a slight anomaly in February 2020 where mileage increased from 3,592 to 3,727, the overall trend suggests the van has spent significant periods stationary or has been used for very minimal local trips. This low usage pattern reduces wear on the drivetrain and braking systems but may introduce other age-related issues. A buyer should focus on components typically affected by long periods of inactivity. Although the MOT history shows no recurring mechanical failures, the lack of regular driving can lead to perished rubber components, such as suspension bushes and tyre sidewalls, or seized brake calipers. The failure in February 2020 for non-functioning position lamps was a minor electrical issue that was promptly rectified, showing no evidence of ongoing electrical degradation. Given the extremely low mileage, a physical inspection should prioritise checking for fluid degradation, such as aged brake fluid or oil, and ensuring that the battery and charging system are healthy. Inspect the tyres for flat spots or age-related cracking, as the tread depth may remain high despite the rubber being old. The absence of any recorded structural corrosion or suspension defects in the MOT history is a positive indicator of the vehicle's current condition.
