2018 Vauxhall Vivaro 1.6L Diesel · NJ15 AAC

The vehicle demonstrates stable roadworthiness, with no defects recorded in its most recent October 2025 MOT at 115,658 miles. The prior tests from 2024, 2023, and 2022 also passed without issues, indicating consistent maintenance. A single failed test in August 2023 at 90,886 miles was recorded but listed no defects, suggesting a procedural error or minor non-critical issue. No recurring mechanical faults or structural concerns are evident in the history, supporting the conclusion of a reliably maintained vehicle. The mileage of 115,658 miles over eight years equates to an average of 14,457 miles annually, which is notably high for the model’s age. A significant jump from 67,269 miles in July 2022 to 90,896 miles in August 2023 reflects rapid accumulation, potentially accelerating wear on consumables and components. Subsequent tests show steady progression to 103,927 miles in October 2024 and 115,658 miles in October 2025, with no evidence of irregularities in the record. This pattern suggests regular usage but highlights the need for closer scrutiny of high-mileage wear items. A buyer should prioritise inspecting the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, given the elevated mileage, and check brake discs and calipers for uneven wear or corrosion. The exhaust system and underbody should also be examined for rust, as high mileage often correlates with increased exposure to road salt and environmental factors. While the MOT history shows no critical failures, the vehicle’s age and mileage necessitate a thorough pre-purchase inspection to confirm the absence of hidden deterioration in key mechanical and structural elements.
