2016 Vauxhall Vivaro 1.6L Diesel · DS16 GJV

The vehicle presents a generally consistent maintenance history, though it has shown signs of wear typical for its age and mileage. The most recent MOT in January 2024 at 51,572 miles passed with no advisories, indicating that the car is currently in a sound roadworthy condition. This follows a failure in early 2023 at 47,473 miles, where issues with the front anti-roll bar linkage and track end joints were identified. The fact that these faults were rectified for the subsequent test suggests the previous owner was proactive in addressing necessary repairs. The mileage progression is steady and logical for a vehicle of this era, moving from approximately 33,500 miles in 2019 to over 51,000 miles in 2024, representing an average annual usage of roughly 3,500 miles. There are no significant gaps in the testing history that would suggest long periods of strancy or neglect. The regular intervals between tests indicate that the car has been used regularly and maintained over the last five years. Upon a physical inspection, a potential buyer should pay close attention to the front suspension components. Given that anti-roll bar and track end joints have been flagged here previously, it is advisable to check for any remaining play or knocking noises over uneven surfaces to ensure the repairs were comprehensive. While the recent history shows no immediate structural or" concerns, a standard check of the rubber bushings and the condition of the tyres is recommended, as these are common areas of wear on vehicles of this age.
