2004 Vauxhall Vivaro 1.9L Diesel · LL53 LLD

This Vauxhall Vivaro is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 9 January 2026 at 193,054 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable and clean, as the vehicle has passed its last three annual inspections without any recorded defects or advisories. While the record shows failures on 2 January 2026 and 28 January 2025, the lack of specific defect data suggests these were likely administrative or minor issues resolved immediately. The mileage is consistent with the vehicle's 22-year age, averaging roughly 8,775 miles per year. The distance covered between the January 2024 test at 179,334 miles and the January 2026 test at 193,054 miles shows a steady usage pattern of approximately 6,860 miles per year over the last two years. There are no erratic jumps in mileage that would suggest periods of prolonged standing or sudden heavy commercial use. Despite the clean MOT history, a vehicle of this age and mileage requires a focused physical inspection. The absence of recorded advisories is unusual for a 2004 model, so a buyer must manually check for structural corrosion, particularly on the chassis rails and sills. The suspension bushes and coil springs should be examined for perishing or fatigue, as these components often wear out before triggering an official MOT failure. A thorough check of the brake discs and pads is necessary to ensure they are not near the end of their service life. The buyer should also verify the condition of the exhaust system for leaks or excessive corrosion. Given the high mileage, a review of the service history for timing belt and water pump replacements is essential to avoid catastrophic engine failure.
