2015 Vauxhall Vivaro 1.6L Diesel · WV15 FFN

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a maintenance trend showing improvement after a period of recorded mechanical concern. The most recent test in April 2025 at 120,264 miles passed with only a minor advisory for light misting on the nearside front shock absorber. This represents a significant recovery from the March 2022 failure where multiple safety and performance-related defects were identified. Since those repairs, the vehicle has undergone two consecutive tests without any recorded defects. The recorded mileage of 120,264 miles over eleven years reflects an average usage of approximately 10,933 miles per annum. This aligns closely with typical usage patterns for a commercial vehicle of this age. The data shows consistent operation, with roughly 1,700 miles covered between the 2023 and 2024 tests and another 779 miles between 2024 and 2025. This regularity suggests the vehicle has not sat stationary for long periods, which generally benefits the health of seals and mechanical components. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front suspension geometry, as the 2022 failure highlighted issues with both the nearside front track rod end and the lower suspension arm ball joint. While these were rectified, the current advisory for a misting nearside front shock absorber indicates the beginning of a seal failure that requires close monitoring for increased fluid leakage. Additionally, the history of excessive brake fluctuation in early 2022 suggests the front discs may have been replaced or resurfaced; the buyer should verify the current condition of the braking rotors during a test drive to ensure the system remains free of vibration.
