2012 Vauxhall Vivaro 2.0L Diesel · DM62 DHM

Based on the DVSA MOT records, this 2012 Vauxhall Vivaro currently holds a pass certificate dated 23 October 2024, recorded at 175,571 miles. The maintenance trend is stable. The most recent test produced zero defects, continuing a pattern of clean passes across the last three years of available history. There are no recurring faults, no advisories, and no evidence of worsening mechanical or structural deterioration in the recorded data. The mileage accumulation is high for a vehicle of this age, averaging roughly 12,541 miles per year over fourteen years. The record shows a jump of approximately 13,903 miles between the November 2022 test at 151,299 miles and the October 2023 test at 165,202 miles, followed by a further 10,369 miles to the October 2024 test at 175,571 miles. This suggests sustained heavy commercial or long-distance use rather than light local work. The MOT history itself is sparse, with only three test events recorded across the last four years, and the duplicate pass and fail entries on the same dates in both 2023 and 2024 indicate retests following initial failures, though no defects are listed in the provided data. Despite the clean MOT outcomes, the high mileage and commercial nature of the Vivaro demand a careful physical inspection. A buyer should examine the condition of the rear brake discs and calipers for uneven wear or binding, check all suspension bushes and coil springs for fatigue, and inspect the subframe and load-bearing areas for corrosion or cracking. The clutch, dual mass flywheel, and gearbox should be assessed for play or judder during a road test. Tyre condition and wheel alignment should also be verified, as high-mileage vans frequently suffer from uneven wear patterns that MOT records alone will not reveal.
