We are currently looking for a bigger van, what we're after is a vauxhall vivaro crew cab, we've been offered one off one of our customers with the 2.5 engine, at a good price, but it has 140k on the clock, it has full service history, just had service with timing belt etc, we are really put off with the mileage, but with it having the good history, is it worth going for?

We had a 2.0d one for a taxi was ok just the drivers killed the engine. They never checked the oil on it if it made a noise they turned the radio up If it's been looked after it will be ok ours had just over 270.000 miles

Thanks Mark, just been and took it out, drives mint, and pulls like a train, feels solid on the road, and the service history is one of the best I've seen. Also got a few toys, air con and sat nav, very tidy inside aswell, just need to get over the mileage thing

mileage is nothing on diesels if they been looked after. my dads old wagon was 6 years old and had over 500,000 with same engine and box but it was serviced every 10 weeks
