2013 Vauxhall Vivaro 2.0L Diesel · M44 VAC

The 2025-11-18 MOT at 178,895 miles confirms the Vauxhall Vivaro remains roadworthy, with the tester recording no defects. The absence of any failures across the five consecutive tests indicates a stable maintenance pattern, suggesting the previous owners have kept the van in consistent condition. The mileage trajectory shows a steady climb from 160,664 miles in October 2021 to 178,895 miles in November 2025, averaging roughly 13,761 miles per year, which is high for a 13‑year‑old vehicle. The intervals between tests are approximately one year, with no extended periods of inactivity evident in the record. A buyer should therefore examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, inspect the brake discs and calipers for binding or excessive wear, and look for structural rust around the wheel arches and chassis rails. The high annual mileage also warrants a close check of tyre tread depth, wiper blade condition, and exhaust system integrity. While the MOT record is clean, a physical inspection is essential to verify that consumable items such as tyres, wiper blades and brake pads have been replaced in line with the high annual mileage, ensuring the vehicle’s continued reliability.
