2021 Vauxhall Vivaro 2900 Sportive S/S 1.5L Diesel · DL21 SDU

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend indicates a shift from perfect records to emerging component wear. While the most recent test in April 2026 at 54,671 miles passed, it introduced several new advisories that were not present in previous years. This contrasts with the clean records seen in 2024 and 2025, suggesting that the vehicle is now entering a phase where consumable components require more frequent attention. The mileage pattern is consistent with a light-use commercial vehicle, showing an average of approximately 11,000 miles per year. There is a notable gap of 13,590 miles between the June 2024 test at 33,781 miles and the April 2026 test at 54,671 miles. This rate of accumulation explains the degradation of the brake components and tyres noted in the latest inspection, as the vehicle has covered significant distance since the previous two-year-defect-free intervals. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system. The April 2026 report flagged both nearside and offside front brake discs as worn, following a failure in June 2024 where both front and rear pads were below the legal thickness limit. This suggests a pattern of running brake components to failure rather than preventative replacement. Additionally, the nearside rear tyre shows signs of perishing or cracking, which indicates the rubber may be degrading due to age despite the relatively low mileage. The offside front windscreen requires monitoring for expanding cracks that could eventually obstruct the driver's field of vision. Since the wipers were previously replaced after the 2024 failure, the buyer should verify the current assembly still functions effectively. Beyond these consumable-related items, no structural corrosion or deep mechanical faults have appeared in the history, indicating the primary concerns are limited to standard wear and tear of high-use parts.
