Generation
Generation and version
Tell us the year, whether it is a panel van, crew van or passenger version, the wheelbase and the trim. Sportive, Edition, Dynamic, Elite, Prime and Pro all differ.
What we check when we value a Vivaro
This is what we look at on every Vivaro, and what is worth telling us, so your offer is right first time.
- High miles accepted
- Gearbox faults accepted
- Electric Vivaros welcome
Engine
Engine and emissions
Tell us how the engine starts and pulls, and about smoke, warning lights or limp mode. Injectors, turbos, DPFs and AdBlue systems are the usual suspects. A fault code readout helps.
Gearbox
Clutch and gearbox
Whining or rumbling from the gearbox, a slipping clutch or a rattle at idle are common on high-mileage Vivaros. Tell us what you notice and whether any work has been done.
Battery
Battery and charging (Vivaro-e)
For the Vivaro-e, tell us the battery size, the range you see on a full charge and which charging cables come with it.
Load area
Load area and body
Photos of the load area and the panels tell us a lot. Racking and lining can add value, and dents are normal on a working van.
History
Service history and paperwork
A service record makes a Vivaro easier to value. Mention clutch, gearbox, timing and injector work.
Your checklist
- The V5C registration document
- Photo ID: passport or driving licence
- All keys, including the spare
- Service history and invoices
- Charging cables, for a Vivaro-e
- Keys for any racking locks or roof bars
This page explains what we look at when we value a Vivaro. It is not a price guide: every van is valued individually, free and without obligation.
