2018 Vauxhall Vivaro 1.6L Diesel · MR10 AAN

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend following a period of inconsistency. The most recent inspection conducted on January 2026 at 132,644 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, indicating that the issues identified in previous years have been successfully rectified. This clean result suggests that the vehicle is currently in a functional mechanical state, though the history of failures indicates a reactive approach to repairs rather than a strictly preventative maintenance schedule. The mileage profile reflects high-intensity usage for an eight-year-old van, averaging approximately 16,580 miles annually. Data shows a significant surge of 8,328 miles covered between October 2023 and November 2024, followed by another 8,227 miles in the fourteen months leading up to the 2026 test. This rapid accumulation puts considerable strain on the drivetrain, suspension, and braking components. The consistent intervals between tests suggest the vehicle is used for heavy commercial duties, which accelerates the wear of consumable items and structural components. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension assembly and braking system due to the high mileage figures. While the latest MOT was clean, the previous failures in September 2023 and November 2024 indicate that mechanical components have required attention in the past. Inspect for signs of play play, worn bushes, and leaking shock absorbers, as these are common points of failure on high-mileage Vivaros. Additionally, check the chassis for corrosion, particularly around the mounting points, as the high annual mileage and environmental exposure can compromise the structural integrity of the vehicle over time.
