2016 Vauxhall Vivaro 1.6L Diesel · DY66 WZX

The Vauxhall Vivaro passed its most recent MOT on 1 February 2023 at 220,218 miles with no defects recorded, indicating a stable roadworthiness status at that time. The maintenance trend shows no worsening faults across the available history, though the record is sparse and now over three years old relative to today's date of 8 July 2026. Mileage stands at 220,218 against a 2016 registration, averaging roughly 22,000 miles per year which is high for a light commercial of this age and points to sustained hard use. Between the 30 September 2021 failure at 192,601 miles and the 7 October 2021 pass at 193,289 miles the vehicle covered only 688 miles, then jumped to 220,096 by the 31 January 2023 failure. The two failed tests on 31 January 2023 and 30 September 2021 list no defects, suggesting administrative or presentation issues rather than mechanical rejection, but the pattern of fail-then-pass within days implies last-minute rectification before certification. Given the clean advisory columns, the MOT data alone reveals no flagged suspension bushes, brake disc wear, corrosion, or exhaust emission concerns. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity and drivetrain components, as 220,000 miles invites fatigue in coil springs, binding calipers, and subframe rust not captured by a fault-free test. The stale 2023 certificate means current condition is unverified and in-person checks of tyre tread, wiper blades, and underbody condition are essential before purchase.
