2007 Vauxhall Vivaro 1.9L Diesel · FN57 YNR

The Vauxhall Vivaro presents a currently roadworthy status following its most recent September 2023 pass at 162,109 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The vehicle cleared the final test with no defects logged, though the same date shows a prior failure with no defects recorded, a pattern repeated at the August 2021 test where a failure preceded a pass at identical mileage. Such paired entries suggest administrative or presentation anomalies at the testing station rather than mechanical faults, as no advisories or defects appear anywhere in the chain. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical 8,532 miles per year for a 2007 panel van, with the record moving from 147,186 miles in August 2021 to 159,738 miles by September 2022, then 162,109 miles at the September 2023 test. The annual increase of roughly 12,500 miles between 2021 and 2022 eased to just over 2,300 miles in the following year, indicating lighter recent use. The DVSA data is sparse, showing only five entries across three years with clean sheets throughout, so no wear trends on consumables or mechanical assemblies can be drawn from the record itself. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and corrosion points common to Vivaro chassis and sills, as the MOT history records no advisories that would confirm these areas were examined in depth. Suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs warrant hands-on checks given the van's 19-year age and the unexplained fail-pass pairs that may have involved undocumented rectifications. The low 2022 to 2023 mileage suggests the van stood partly idle, raising the risk of seized calipers or flat-spotted tyres that a static record will not reveal.
