2015 Vauxhall Vivaro 1.6L Diesel · SD65 LHA

The Vauxhall Vivaro presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 31 January 2026 returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior test on 18 December 2024 also passed clean at 144,885 miles. Across the available record the vehicle shows no recurring advisories or mechanical faults, indicating consistent compliance with statutory roadworthiness standards over the observed period. Mileage data is limited to three points: 117,722 miles at the 8 December 2022 test, 135,584 miles at the 14 December 2023 pass, and 144,885 miles at the December 2024 test. This equates to roughly 17,800 miles per year, a typical commercial van usage rate for a 2015 model. A one-day gap between the 13 December 2023 failure and the 14 December 2023 pass shows a swift rectification, though the failure listed no defects, suggesting an administrative or presentation issue rather than a mechanical fault. No early-life or mid-life records exist before 2022, leaving the first seven years undocumented. The clean history gives no cause to suspect suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, or structural corrosion issues. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of underbody condition and brake caliper operation, as MOT passes with no advisories do not capture wear below test thresholds. The absence of flagged exhaust emissions or binding calipers in the record implies previous owners kept the drivetrain and braking systems serviceable. Given the sparse but unbroken pass record since 2022, the vendor likely maintained the van to minimum legal standard rather than to a high cosmetic or preventative regime. Verify service invoices in person to confirm cambelt and fluid intervals, since the MOT dataset alone cannot evidence routine mechanical care.
