2012 VAUXHALL VIVARO 2900 CDTI LWB2.0L Diesel

The 2012 Vauxhall Vivaro 2900 CDTi LWB presents a stable roadworthiness trend. The most recent test on 10 September 2025 at 153,145 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior clean pass dated 8 October 2024 at 144,119 miles confirms the vehicle entered its fourteenth year in sound mechanical order. The upkeep pattern shows consistency rather than decline. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a light commercial of this age, averaging roughly 10,900 miles per year. The record moves from 118,443 miles at the June 2022 test to 129,983 miles by August 2023, then 144,067 miles at the failed October 2024 attempt, reaching 153,145 miles by September 2025. A nine-month gap separates the 2023 and 2024 tests, though annual testing resumed afterwards. The failed test on 4 October 2024 at 144,067 miles carries no listed defects, and the van passed four days later at 144,119 miles, indicating an administrative or non-mechanical rejection rather than a worn component fault. The absence of advisories across all five entries means the tester logged no worn suspension bushes, corroded structure, binding calipers, or exhaust issues at the recorded mileages. A buyer should still inspect the underbody for chassis rust given the van's age and 153,145 miles, and verify brake disc thickness and tyre condition in person. The clean history implies previous owners addressed consumables before each test, but MOT silence does not confirm component life remaining beyond the test date.
