2012 Vauxhall Vivaro 1.9L Diesel · NX12 AOB

The vehicle holds a current MOT certificate valid until June 2026, with the most recent test conducted on June 27, 2025, at 210,578 miles resulting in a clean pass. This record indicates a stable maintenance trend, as the last three consecutive annual tests have yielded zero recorded defects or advisories. The absence of recurring failures suggests that the vehicle has been subjected to consistent upkeep, avoiding the common pattern of neglected consumables often seen in high-mileage commercial vans of this age. Accumulating 210,578 miles over a 14-year period averages approximately 15,000 miles per annum, which confirms heavy commercial usage rather than light domestic operation. The record shows a notable gap in testing between March 2021 and February 2023, where the vehicle covered roughly 18,700 miles. Following this period, the mileage accumulation slowed significantly, with only about 5,800 miles added between February 2023 and June 2025. This shift suggests the van may have transitioned from intensive daily service to lighter duty or intermittent use in its later years. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on components that typically suffer from high-mileage fatigue, even if they did not trigger an MOT failure. Given the age and usage profile, examine the structural integrity of the chassis rails and sills for signs of corrosion, as these areas are prone to degradation on the Vivaro platform. Inspect the suspension bushes, ball joints, and coil springs for play or fatigue, as these items often wear silently despite passing basic safety checks. Listen for excessive drivetrain noise or clutch slip during a test drive, as the high mileage indicates these major mechanical assemblies are likely reaching the end of their design life.
