2013 Vauxhall Vivaro 2.0L Diesel · FH13 ORP

The Vauxhall Vivaro presents a stable roadworthiness trend, with the most recent test on 7 October 2023 at 162,979 miles returning a pass and no defects recorded. Prior tests in October 2022 at 161,022 miles and August 2021 at 159,404 miles also passed cleanly. The only blemish is a failed entry logged on 31 August 2021 at 159,404 miles carrying no recorded defects, immediately followed the same day by a pass at identical mileage, which points to an administrative or process anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. At roughly 13 years old the van shows 162,979 recorded miles, an average of about 12,537 miles per year, which is high for a 2013 light commercial. The gap between the August 2021 and October 2022 tests spans fourteen months yet covers only 1,618 miles, suggesting a period of low use. From October 2022 to October 2023 the van added just 1,957 miles. The sparse record gives no advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions across the seen history. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion given the age and high lifetime mileage. The clean MOT trail offers no flag on coil springs, binding calipers, or tyre condition, but the same-day fail-and-pass in 2021 warrants a check of the DVSA failure reason if the V5C or test certificate is available. Verify the odometer against service stamps to confirm the low annual accumulation since 2021 reflects genuine light use rather than omitted entries.
