2017 Vauxhall Vivaro 1.6L Diesel · EY67 AEK

The 2025‑11‑17 MOT at 76,025 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating that the Vauxhall Vivaro remains roadworthy and that the maintenance record shows a stable, improving trend since the 2021 failure. The vehicle, nine years old, has accumulated roughly 8,400 miles per year on average. The odometer reading fell dramatically from 105,180 miles in the 2020 test to 33,281 miles in the 2021 test, a discrepancy that suggests a possible odometer correction or a change in ownership, after which mileage rose steadily from 44,773 miles in 2022 to 76,025 miles in 2025, a consistent annual increase of about 8,500 miles. Recurring tyre wear on the near‑side rear tyre in 2021 and 2023, together with the 2021 brake pad deficiency, points to potential suspension or alignment issues and worn brake components that should be examined for uneven tyre wear, binding calipers, and disc condition. A buyer should therefore inspect the rear suspension bushes, coil springs, and mounting points for corrosion or damage, verify the condition of the brake discs and pads for scoring or excessive wear, check for structural rust around the wheel arches and chassis rails, and confirm that the tyre wear pattern is even, as these items reflect the mechanical health indicated by the MOT history.
