“Viv” the Vivaro – 2011 Vauxhall Vivaro HighTop LWB Camper
Self-Converted, Charming & Adventure-Ready
1995cc, Diesel
Mileage: 137,800 (still in use so may go up slightly)
MOT & service due Nov 2026 with no advisories

Meet Viv, our much-loved 2011 Vauxhall Vivaro HighTop LWB campervan. Viv was converted by the previous owner and is perfectly designed for comfort, convenience and full off-grid flexibility.

She’s compact enough to drive with ease down small country lanes and fit into normal sized parking spots, but tall enough to feel spacious and offer the practicality of a bigger camper. Viv has seen us into the depths of the Scottish Highlands and as far south as the Pyrenees, so whether you’re chasing weekend escapes or planning trips further afield, we can confirm Viv is up to the adventure!

We’re reluctantly selling her as we move on to the next stage of our lives, but hoping a new owner will come along and find as much enjoyment and adventure as we have!

Any questions or to come and view “Viv” in Glasgow, please get in touch.

🔧 Summary of Vehicle Works

In the 3 years we have owned Viv, we have done about 16ooo miles. The van is very fuel-efficient and has travelled from Scotland to Portsmouth on 2/3 of a tank. There is a full-service history during our ownership & plenty of paperwork to go along with it. All major & minor advisories have been addressed whenever they have arisen and the repairs you may typically expect at this age/mileage have already been taken care of. See below:

June 2023 – New MAP sensor & turbo pressure converter valve

Sept 2024 – New alternator & drive belt

Oct 2024 – New Exide leisure battery (115ah 550wh) and replaced split charge relay

April 2025 – 2 x new front tyres (Lanvigator Milemax)

July 2025 – New car battery fitted by Halfords (Yuasa 5000 HSB019 with 5-year guarantee)

Nov 2025 – New Front steering rack, track rod ends, handbrake cables and brake discs/pads/calipers and 2x new rear tyres

Jan 2026 – New headlights fitted

The bodywork is also great for the age of the vehicle proving she has been well-loved and looked after. There is a small dent on the rear right door which was resprayed by previous owners as well as a few stone chips on the bonnet. The rear bumper also had a knock on it when we bought it, but it never bothered us. Otherwise, we think she is in great nick!
