2013 Vauxhall Vivaro 2.0L Diesel · FL13 ADO

The vehicle shows a stable maintenance trend with a clean record of passes, though the most recent MOT data is significantly outdated. The last recorded test on 31 May 2022 at 244,472 miles resulted in a pass with no defects. This indicates the vehicle was roadworthy at that time, but there is a gap of over four years between that test and the current date of 23 July 2026. Mileage accumulation is high for a 2013 model, averaging nearly 19,000 miles per year. The record shows a steady increase from 204,279 miles in March 2019 to 244,472 miles by May 2022. This high-usage pattern typically accelerates the wear of drivetrain components and suspension systems. The absence of any recorded defects or advisories over this five-year span is unusual for a high-mileage commercial vehicle, suggesting either exceptional maintenance or a very lenient testing regime. A buyer must prioritise a physical inspection of the chassis and underbody for corrosion, as this is a common failure point for Vivaros that often goes unmentioned in brief records. Given the high mileage and the long period of inactivity since the last MOT, the condition of the rubber components is a primary concern. Specifically, check for perished tyres, cracked suspension bushes, and seized brake calipers. The engine and transmission should be scrutinized for wear consistent with 244,000 miles. Check for oil leaks and evaluate the exhaust emissions to ensure the diesel particulate filter or EGR system has not degraded during the vehicle's recent period of dormancy. The lack of historical advisories means there is no paper trail for preventative part replacements, so verifying the age of the timing belt and water pump is essential.
