2016 Vauxhall Viva 1.0L Petrol · C3 RCJ

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status with a remarkably stable maintenance trend. The most recent inspection on 26 September 2025 at 34,544 miles resulted in a pass following an immediate failure on the same day. The tester flagged a malfunctioning tyre pressure monitoring system, which was rectified promptly to achieve the pass. Beyond this single electronic fault, the record shows no history of defects or advisories, suggesting a consistent level of mechanical upkeep. The usage profile is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,454 miles per year. Between September 2022 at 27,536 miles and September 2024 at 34,296 miles, the car covered only 6,760 miles over two years, indicating short-distance commuting or infrequent use. This low mileage remains consistent throughout the recorded history. While low mileage typically reduces the wear on the drivetrain and suspension components, it can occasionally lead to flat spotting tyres or degradation of rubber seals and brake components due to periods of inactivity. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the tyre pressure monitoring system to ensure the repair remains effective, as this was the only recorded issue. Given the low annual mileage, it is vital to inspect the brake discs for corrosion or pitting, as these can occur when a vehicle is not used regularly. The absence of any advisories for structural rust or suspension wear in the history suggests the chassis is in good condition, but a manual check of the underbody and sills remains standard practice for a vehicle of this age.
