2016 Vauxhall Viva 1.0L Petrol · KT16 XFV

The 2016 Vauxhall Viva demonstrates stable roadworthiness with no critical defects in its most recent MOT on 2025-12-13 at 63,649 miles. The vehicle passed all tests since 2023, including a 2024-12-20 inspection at 55,136 miles, with no recorded issues. A single failed test on 2023-06-12 at 53,318 miles is noted, but no defects were listed, suggesting a possible administrative error or minor non-compliance resolved prior to subsequent passes. The absence of recurring mechanical or structural faults indicates consistent maintenance, though the 2023 failure warrants scrutiny to confirm resolution. Mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a 10-year-old vehicle, averaging 6,365 miles annually. The 2023-06-16 test at 53,337 miles shows a 1,400-mile gap from the prior 2023-06-12 test, potentially reflecting periods of inactivity. Subsequent tests in 2024 and 2025 reveal steady annual increases of 8,513 and 8,513 miles, respectively, indicating regular use. The MOT history lacks significant gaps, suggesting the vehicle has been consistently operated and maintained. A buyer should verify the resolution of the 2023-06-12 failure, as unresolved issues could hint at underlying problems. While no defects were recorded, the 2023 test’s failure may signal a need to inspect the braking system, suspension components, or exhaust for minor faults. At 63,649 miles, the vehicle’s age and mileage also justify checking for corrosion in the underbody, wear on suspension bushes, and the condition of brake discs. No major structural concerns are indicated, but a physical inspection is advised to confirm the absence of hidden damage or unresolved issues.
