2011 Vauxhall Vivaro 2.0L Diesel · FG61 KXC

The Vauxhall Vivaro passed its most recent MOT on 26 August 2025 at 259,387 miles with no defects recorded, indicating the vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status. The maintenance trend appears stable across the recorded history, with clean passes in October 2023 at 248,936 miles, October 2024 at 257,449 miles, and August 2025 at 259,387 miles. Two failed tests on 6 October 2023 and 22 August 2025 show no defects logged by the tester, which points to administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical faults. At roughly 15 years old the van has covered 259,387 miles, an average of about 17,292 miles per year, which is high for a 2011 light commercial. Mileage climbed from 248,936 in October 2023 to 257,449 by October 2024, then only 1,938 miles to August 2025, suggesting lighter recent use. The record is sparse with no advisories or consumable wear flagged at any stage, so the data gives little insight into underlying component condition despite the high total distance. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the mileage and age. The absence of corrosion or structural integrity notes in the MOT is reassuring, but high-mileage Vivaros commonly develop rust at sill and chassis junctions unseen by annual testing. Verify the 22 August 2025 failure cause with the test centre, as a zero-defect fail is irregular and may reflect a documentation error rather than a cleared fault. Check tyre tread depth, wiper blades, and exhaust emissions in person before purchase. The clean record implies previous owners kept basic upkeep current, yet the two anomaly fails mean the buyer must confirm the August 2025 test was a genuine pass and not a system duplicate.
