2012 Vauxhall Vivaro 2.0L Diesel · NL62 ADO

This Vauxhall Vivaro presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistently clean MOT history. The most recent test on 26 January 2026 at 142,349 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a pattern of clean passes dating back to January 2023, indicating a vehicle that has been maintained to a standard that consistently meets minimum legal requirements without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage accumulation is linear and consistent with the vehicle's 14-year age. Between January 2024 and January 2026, the odometer rose from 129,137 to 142,349 miles, averaging roughly 6,600 miles per year over the last two years. This steady usage suggests the van has remained in active service rather than sitting dormant, which generally reduces the risk of seized calipers or perished seals. The absence of advisories across five years of testing is unusual for a commercial vehicle of this age and mileage. While the record is clean, a buyer should still physically inspect the chassis and load area for corrosion, as surface rust often goes unmentioned unless it compromises structural integrity. Particular attention should be paid to the suspension bushes and coil springs, which typically degrade around the 140,000-mile mark regardless of MOT outcomes. Check the service history for evidence of timing belt and water pump replacements. The MOT record confirms the vehicle passes emissions and safety checks, but it does not track preventative maintenance. Verify the condition of the brake discs and tyres in person to ensure consumables are not nearing the end of their lifespan, as the lack of advisories suggests the previous owner may have performed these replacements just prior to the annual tests.
