2015 Vauxhall Vivaro 1.6L Diesel · FL65 KOD

The Vauxhall Vivaro presents as roadworthy following its most recent test. On 17 October 2025 at 85,248 miles the van passed with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable, with every annual examination from 2023 onward showing a clean bill of health once any initial failure was rectified. No worsening mechanical faults or recurring advisories appear in the chain. Mileage sits at a typical level for an eleven year old 2015 van. The record shows 75,687 miles at the 20 October 2023 test, rising to 80,852 by 18 October 2024 and 85,248 by 17 October 2025. That equates to roughly 5,000 miles per year across the logged period, below the 7,750 annual average implied by the odometer. The low accumulation suggests lighter commercial use or periods of standing. Two anomalies merit a buyer's attention. On both 18 October 2024 at 80,840 miles and 17 October 2025 at 85,237 miles the van failed the first attempt yet the DVSA entry lists no defects. This pattern points to administrative or presentational errors at the testing station rather than a mechanical fault. The immediate pass on the same day at marginally higher mileage confirms the vehicle was not withdrawn for repair. Given the clean advisory history, no suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or structural corrosion have been flagged. A buyer should still verify in person that the chassis and subframes are free of rust and that the braking system shows no binding calipers after standing. The sparse record offers no evidence of skipped consumable upkeep, but a visual check of tyre tread and exhaust emissions remains sound practice before purchase.
