2017 Vauxhall Vivaro 1.6L Diesel · DH66 AVB

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift from reactive repairs to basic consumable wear. The most recent test in January 2026 at 110,527 miles resulted in a pass but highlighted multiple advisories regarding tyre condition and puncture damage. This follows a period of clean records in 2024 and 2025, suggesting that while major mechanical issues were addressed, the vehicle is now requiring routine maintenance attention. The mileage pattern indicates a consistent high-use commercial profile, averaging approximately 12,300 miles per year. Between January 2023 and January 2026, the vehicle covered 29,770 miles, representing a steady rate of accumulation rather than long periods of standing. This high usage places significant cumulative stress on the drivetrain and suspension components. The lack of gaps between annual tests suggests the vehicle remains in regular use, which is generally preferable for engine health compared to neglected vehicles. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the suspension system, as the vehicle failed in January 2023 due to a serious fluid leak on the nearside front shock absorber and a fractured offside rear coil spring. While these were repaired, the light misting noted on the offside front shock during that same test suggests components nearing the end of their functional life. The 2026 advisories regarding the offside front tyre worn on the edge and nails in both front tyres indicate potential alignment issues or a lack of basic upkeep that requires immediate attention.
