2016 Vauxhall Vivaro 1.6L Diesel · YP66 HDZ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent pass record over the last five years. The most recent test on 21 October 2025 at 44,848 miles resulted in a pass, though the tester flagged a nearside front tyre showing signs of perishing. This follows a period of clean records between 2021 and 2024, suggesting the vehicle has been maintained without significant mechanical or structural failures. The mileage pattern is notably low for a ten-year-old van, averaging approximately 4,485 miles per year. The data shows steady, incremental growth, moving from 26,685 miles in September 2021 to 44,848 miles by late 2025. This low usage suggests the vehicle has seen light duty, which typically preserves the engine components and drivetrain from high-mile wear. However, low mileage on older vehicles can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber-based components and brake systems, as evidenced by the tyre condition noted in the latest test. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the condition of the tyres, as the 2025 advisory indicates the rubber is failing due to age rather than tread depth. Because the van has covered such low distances, it is essential to check for seized brake calipers or perished suspension bushes that often occur during periods of inactivity. While the MOT history shows no structural corrosion or suspension defects, a manual check of the chassis for surface rust is advisable to ensure the low-mileage status has not masked environmental degradation.
