2004 Vauxhall Vivaro 1.9L Diesel · FL04 XLM

The 2004 Vauxhall Vivaro presents a stable roadworthiness trend. The most recent test on 7 September 2023 returned a pass with no defects recorded, matching the prior clean pass from 19 August 2022. Two consecutive annual tests with zero advisories indicates the vehicle met minimum statutory standards without flagged wear to brakes, suspension, or structure at those points. Mileage data is absent across both entries, so no accumulation pattern can be established against the vehicle's twenty-two years of age. The record shows only two tests in the visible history, leaving a gap before 2022 that prevents assessment of earlier use or neglect. A buyer should treat the clean recent results as a snapshot rather than proof of long-term care. Given the absence of recorded faults, the buyer should still commission an independent inspection of common Vivaro failure points. The MOT does not capture intermittent drivetrain faults, turbo oil consumption, or internal corrosion within sills and floorpan that escapes the test ramp. Check the rear suspension bushes, brake disc thickness, and exhaust emissions under load during any viewing. The two-year clean record suggests the previous keeper addressed roadworthiness before each test, yet the sparse history offers no evidence of proactive maintenance. Verify the service book and inspect for undocumented accident repair before purchase.
