2017 Vauxhall Vivaro 1.6L Diesel · EY67 AEN

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, though the history indicates a period of inconsistency regarding test compliance. The most recent test on 19 January 2023 at 45,140 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, marking an improvement over previous failures. This suggests that whatever mechanical issues caused the failures in 2022 were addressed, leaving the vehicle in a state that meets the minimum safety standards as of the last recorded inspection. The mileage profile is notably low for a nine-year-old van, averaging approximately 5,016 miles per year. Data shows a significant lack of activity between November 2021 and February 2022, where the vehicle covered only 152 miles across three tests. The subsequent gap to reach current 45,140 miles suggests the vehicle may have sat for long periods or was used for very light commuting. While low mileage reduces wear on the engine and drivetrain, it often leads to the degradation of rubber components, perished seals, and surface corrosion on brake discs. A buyer must conduct a physical inspection focusing on components typically affected by low-mileage use. The recurring failures in late 2021 and early 2022, despite no specific defect descriptions listed in this summary, imply the vehicle required immediate attention to pass subsequent tests. Check for binding brake calipers, seized components, and perished suspension bushes that stiffen from inactivity. Given the age of the Vivaro, a close look at the structural integrity of the sills and floor pans is essential, as rust can occur regardless of the few miles driven.
