2023 Vauxhall Vivaro F2700 PRO S/S 1.5L Diesel · DL72 PDY

The latest MOT test conducted on 2nd March 2026 resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. Given the vehicle's age, the current maintenance trend appears stable, as the absence of any noted failures or warnings suggests that the vehicle has been maintained to a satisfactory standard of roadworthiness up to the most recent official inspection. The vehicle has covered 58,900 miles in approximately three years, averaging nearly 20,000 miles per annum. This is considered high usage for a vehicle of this age, indicating it has been used intensively for commercial purposes. Such rapid mileage accumulation typically accelerates the wear and tear on primary consumables, particularly the braking system, suspension components, and drivetrain, meaning the vehicle has been subjected to significantly more mechanical stress than a typical low-mileage example. Since the MOT record is clean, the buyer should focus on physical wear consistent with high commercial usage. During a test drive, pay close attention to the suspension for any knocks or clunks, which could indicate worn suspension bushes or failing coil springs. Check the brake pedal feel for any sponginess and inspect the brake discs for significant lip wear or scoring, as high-mileage vans often require more frequent replacements of pads and discs than the MOT minimum standard suggests. Furthermore, verify the service history to ensure oil changes have been performed at intervals appropriate for high-mileage commercial use rather than just the maximum manufacturer limit. Inspect the tyre treads for uneven wear, which may point to alignment issues or worn steering rack components. Finally, check the condition of the clutch and gearbox synchronisation to ensure there is no slipping or hesitation, as these components are under higher load in a vehicle used for frequent, heavy-duty transport.
