VAUXHALL COMBO2019 · 1.6L DIESEL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the most recent service history indicates a decline in proactive maintenance. While the car passed its latest test in September 2025 at 59,812 miles, it initially failed the inspection due to multiple lighting defects and brake wear. The transition from a clean record in 2024 to a failure in 2025 suggests the owner may only be addressing issues once they fail inspection rather than performing routine preventative care. The mileage pattern remains consistent with typical light-commercial usage, averaging approximately 8,500 miles per year over the seven-year period. Between the 2022 test at 29,465 miles and the 2024 test at 46,737 miles, the vehicle covered 17,272 miles, showing steady use. The more recent 13,075 miles covered in the year leading up to 2025 represents a slight increase in activity, which explains the accelerated wear on consumable components noted in the most recent report. A buyer must conduct a close physical inspection of the front braking system. The 2025 failure flagged thin brake pads and pitted, scored discs, indicating the metal components have reached the end of their service life. You should verify that both discs and pads have been replaced recently and check for any signs of caliper caliper sticking, as the pitting on the previous discs may suggest moisture ingress or neglect. Additionally, ensure the headlamp assemblies and registration plate bulbs are fully functional, as these were specific points of failure in the last test.
