Why it stands out

The Vauxhall Vivaro is a medium-sized van available as a panel van, crew van and minibus, with long and short wheelbases and high and low roofs. It has two standard trim grades and a range of refined and economical 1.6-litre turbodiesel engines, with the lead 1.6 available at 89bhp. The panel van versions have a metre-wide sliding door on the nearside and barn doors at the back, while the six-seat Combi and nine-seat minibus have windowed sliding doors on both sides. The short wheelbase version can take three Euro pallets, and the load area will easily accommodate 8ftx4ft panels.

It is not the biggest van in its class, and the cabin plastics are workmanlike. Some owners also say the diesel engines have to be worked hard when the van is fully loaded. Reliability is decent overall, but there are enough known issues to keep an eye on, including turbochargers, injectors, EGR sensors and clutch problems.

Best for: Business users who want a practical, good-value van that is pleasant to drive and available in several body styles.

Not ideal for: Buyers who need the biggest payload or the most polished cabin in the medium-van class.

The verdict

You should buy this car if: You want a good-value medium-sized van that is easy to live with, refined on the road and available in a wide range of practical body styles.

Consider alternatives if: You need the strongest payload figures or a more upmarket cabin than the Vivaro can offer.

Competitive position: The Vivaro is popular because it drives well, feels almost car-like and offers strong value second-hand. Against modern rivals, its payload is nothing special, and some owners find the diesel engines need to be worked harder when carrying big loads. It sits as a sensible, well-liked choice rather than the class leader for outright carrying ability.
