2016 Vauxhall Vivaro 1.6L Diesel · FM16 RZW

The 2016 Vauxhall Vivaro presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 17 June 2025 at 66,117 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken four-year sequence of clean results. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a ten-year-old light commercial vehicle. The record shows 54,319 miles at the 9 May 2022 test, rising to 61,181 by 14 June 2023, then 62,974 on 1 July 2024, and 66,117 at the final entry. Annual use averaged under 4,000 miles across the logged period, with no abrupt jumps or standing gaps that would suggest irregular servicing or hidden wear cycles. The DVSA data itself carries no advisories on tyres, brake discs, suspension bushes, or corrosion across any test. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody condition despite the clean sheet. Vans of this era commonly develop chassis rust and degraded coil springs outside the MOT window, and the Vivaro's subframe mounting points warrant close checking. Verify the brake calipers and handbrake mechanism operate free of binding, and confirm the exhaust emissions system remains within tolerance under load. Given the sparse but consistent history, previous ownership appears to have kept basic upkeep current without deferred consumable replacement. The absence of repeated advisories indicates no worsening mechanical pattern, though low annual mileage may have masked drivetrain strain only visible on a road test.
