VAUXHALL VIVARO2007 · 2.0L Diesel

The Vauxhall Vivaro presents a broadly stable roadworthiness picture, with its most recent test on 16 November 2023 at 151,140 miles returning a pass with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend shows no worsening mechanical faults across the available history, though the same-day fail and pass on 16 November 2023 is anomalous and suggests an administrative or presentation issue at the testing station rather than a genuine defect, since no faults were listed on either entry. Prior to that, the vehicle passed cleanly in October 2022 at 143,416 miles and October 2021 at 131,603 miles. The recorded mileage of 151,140 over roughly nineteen years equates to about 7,955 miles per year, which is typical for a light commercial van of this age. The gap between the September 2021 fail at 130,534 miles and the October 2021 pass at 131,603 miles shows only light use in that period, and annual increments of around 11,800 miles between 2021 and 2023 are unremarkable. The MOT data is sparse and clean, with no advisories or consumable wear items such as tyres, brake discs, or suspension bushes ever flagged across the five entries. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and corrosion points, as the Vivaro of this era is prone to rust at sill and chassis junctions that an MOT with zero advisories may not have photographed in detail. The brake calipers, coil springs, and exhaust emissions should be functionally tested, since the absence of recorded defects does not confirm component condition at 151,140 miles. Given the clean record, previous owners appear to have kept the van to a basic pass standard, but the lack of advisories offers no insight into impending wear on drivetrain or steering components.
