2021 Vauxhall Vivaro 3100 Sportive S/S 2.0L Diesel · DP70 BCF

The overall roadworthiness of this vehicle is currently passing, but the maintenance trend appears to be improving rather than deteriorating, as evidenced by the most recent test on 2026-01-14 where the car achieved a 65,674-mile pass with no recorded defects. However, the history indicates a clear pattern of increasing wear on critical components over the past three years, which suggests a need for immediate inspection to rule out underlying structural risks. The mileage accumulation is not uniform; the vehicle has experienced a significant gap between the 2026 test and the 2025 test, accumulating approximately 16,248 miles without any recorded faults at the 49,426-mile mark. This rapid mileage increase over a short period, combined with the lack of defects in the 2023 and 2024 tests, implies that the vehicle has been driven with minimal maintenance or that the transmission and drivetrain have remained relatively clean. While the 2026 test shows no issues, the 2025 test reveals a severe constant velocity boot failure on the nearside front drive shaft, which must be addressed before any further driving. A buyer should inspect the suspension and drivetrain components in person, specifically the constant velocity boots and the front drive shaft joint, as these are the primary sources of wear and corrosion identified in the MOT record. If a buyer proceeds with driving the vehicle, they must verify that the suspension bushings and coil springs are intact and that the brake discs and calipers are free of corrosion or binding, as these are the most likely to fail under the current mileage and usage patterns.
