2022 Vauxhall Vivaro F2700 Dynamic S/S 1.5L Diesel · AV22 JLU

The 2026‑02‑10 MOT at 42,703 miles recorded a clean pass with no defects, confirming that the Vauxhall Vivaro is presently roadworthy. The preceding failure on 2025‑02‑21 at 40,083 miles for a non‑illuminating rear registration lamp was rectified before the next test, indicating that previous mechanical concerns were addressed and the maintenance record reflects a stable, improving trend. The vehicle’s mileage of 42,703 miles over a four‑year period averages 10,676 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage for a 2022 model and shows no evidence of extended periods of inactivity or abrupt mileage spikes. The two 2025‑02‑21 entries are closely spaced in mileage, suggesting regular testing and consistent vehicle use. A buyer should therefore focus on the suspension system, examining the condition of the bushes, coil springs and shock absorbers for signs of wear or binding, and inspect the brake discs and calipers for uneven wear or corrosion that could indicate prior binding issues. Tyre tread depth and wiper blade condition should also be assessed, as repeated wear may hint at alignment or usage patterns that affect overall component life. Finally, a visual inspection of the chassis for structural rust, especially around the rear wheel arches and underbody, and verification of the exhaust system’s integrity are advisable, as the earlier lamp failure may have exposed underlying wiring or corrosion that could affect other electrical components.
