2015 Vauxhall Vivaro 1.6L Diesel · AE65 AFN

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-08-20 recorded a pass at 207,368 miles, but an identical failed entry on the same date introduces ambiguity. Previous tests from 2022 to 2024 showed consistent passes with no defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend. No structural or mechanical failures were flagged in the recorded history, suggesting the car has been kept in roadworthy condition. However, the duplicate MOT result requires verification to confirm the accuracy of the latest assessment. The vehicle’s mileage of 207,368 miles over 11 years equates to an average of 18,852 miles annually, exceeding typical usage for its age. Notable gaps in the MOT record, such as the 2,131-mile span between the 2023-06-09 test (200,457 miles) and 2024-06-07 test (202,288 miles), suggest irregular servicing intervals. The rapid accumulation of 5,080 miles in 14 months between 2024-06-07 and 2025-08-20 further highlights high usage, which may accelerate wear on components like suspension bushes, brake discs, and exhaust systems. A buyer should inspect the suspension for worn coil springs or binding calipers, as high mileage often exacerbates these issues. Brake discs and pads should be checked for uneven wear, while the exhaust system’s integrity is critical given the vehicle’s age. Corrosion in body panels or undercarriage areas merits scrutiny, as prolonged use increases rust risk. The duplicate MOT entry also warrants clarification to ensure the car’s compliance history is accurate before purchase.
