What to Look For When Buying Used

• DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter): Particularly on Euro 5/6 models, DPF issues can arise with frequent short journeys. Check for warning lights, excessive smoke, or a recent DPF replacement/clean.
• Timing Chain/Belt:
  • X82 (1.6 CDTi): These engines use a timing chain. While usually maintenance-free for life, listen for rattles, especially on cold start, which could indicate wear.
  • K0 (1.5 CDTi, 2.0 CDTi): These engines use a timing belt. Check service records for evidence of a belt change at the manufacturer's recommended interval (typically 60,000 - 100,000 miles or 5-7 years). Failure to change can be catastrophic.
• Gearbox: Manual gearboxes in X82 models can be prone to wear, particularly the 6-speed unit. Listen for noisy bearings, difficult gear selection (especially 1st and reverse), or a slipping clutch.
• Injectors/Fuel System: On high-mileage diesels, check for rough idling, power loss, or excessive smoke, which could point to failing injectors.
• Rust Spots: While generally good, check around wheel arches, sill protectors, and the bottom of doors for surface rust, especially on older X82 models.
• Rear Door Hinges: Often heavily used, check for play or damage.

Running Costs for Businesses

• Typical Insurance (Average Fleet Policy): For a competent driver on a fleet policy, expect insurance group 30-40 (similar vehicles), with premiums ranging from £600-£1,200+ per year, depending on business type, location, and driver history. Single vehicle policies will vary.
• Fuel Economy (Real-world combined):
  • X82 1.6 CDTi: 35-45 mpg

  • Vivaro-e: Range of 124-205 miles (WLTP), significantly lower running costs per mile if charged efficiently.
• Servicing: Main dealer servicing can be £250-£450 for a minor service, £450-£800+ for a major. Independent specialists offer competitive rates.
• ULEZ/CAZ Compliance:
  • X82: Some older X82 will be Euro 5 and not ULEZ/CAZ compliant without modification. Newer X82 (Euro 6 from late 2016/2017 onwards) are compliant. Always check the specific vehicle's Euro status.
  • K0: All Vivaro K0 models are Euro 6d compliant and are exempt from ULEZ/CAZ charges.
  • Vivaro-e: Zero emissions and exempt from all current UK clean air zone charges.
