2016 Vauxhall Vivaro 1.6L Diesel · DC16 NMY

The Vauxhall Vivaro presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 23 April 2025 at 99,188 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken five-year sequence of clean MOT outcomes. No advisories or mechanical faults appear across the entire history, indicating the vehicle has not required rectification work within the test regime. Annual mileage sits close to typical expectations for a 2016 panel van. The records show 71,207 miles at the June 2021 test, rising to 80,739 by May 2022, 89,128 in April 2023, 95,872 in May 2024, and 99,188 in April 2025. That equates to roughly 7,000 to 9,000 miles added each year with no abrupt jumps or dormant gaps. The clean sheet across all entries suggests previous keepers kept basic consumables and structural items within test limits, though absence of advisories means wear was either minimal or simply not flagged. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the spotless record. The MOT only samples condition on test day. At ten years old and nearing 100,000 miles, suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc thickness warrant hands-on checks for fatigue not yet surfaced. Drivetrain mounts and exhaust emissions hardware on the 2.0 CDTI unit deserve scrutiny for early corrosion. Given no recurring faults or structural concerns logged, the Vivaro shows no warning signs of deferred upkeep. The consistent pass rate reflects at least adequate servicing discipline. Verify service stamps against the mileage increments above before purchase to confirm oil and timing belt intervals were met.
