2011 Vauxhall Vivaro 2.5L Diesel · LX60 AAJ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by three consecutive clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 8 January 2025 at 200,714 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that the van currently meets minimum safety and environmental standards. While a single failure occurred on 5 January 2023 at 184,807 miles, the immediate pass the following day suggests the owner addressed the specific mechanical fault quickly to maintain road legality. The mileage pattern reflects consistent, high-intensity usage, averaging approximately 13,400 miles per annum over its fifteen-year life. Between January 2022 and January 2024, the vehicle covered 12,863 miles, while the period between January 2024 and January 2025 saw an increase of 8,920 miles. This steady accumulation suggests the van was used for consistent commercial or transit duties, which typically ensures even wear on drivetrain components and suspension bushings but prevents the dry rot-related degradation often associated with long periods of inactivity. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components most susceptible to high-mileage stress. Given the 200,714 mile mark, close attention is required regarding the suspension arms, coil springs, and shock absorbers for signs of excessive play or weeping. Inspect the chassis and load floor edges for structural corrosion, as older Vivaro models are prone to rust in these areas. Although the recent records is clean of advisories, a manual check of the brake caliper binding and disc thickness is necessary to ensure the braking system hasn't degraded beyond the basic MOT requirements since the last test.
