2014 Vauxhall Combo 1.2L Diesel · FL64 AAN

The 2014 Vauxhall Combo demonstrates stable roadworthiness with no defects recorded in its most recent MOT on 2025-11-22 at 65,684 miles. The prior test on 2024-11-08 at 64,940 miles also passed, though a failed test on 2024-11-06 at 64,937 miles—despite no defects noted—suggests potential administrative inconsistency. No recurring mechanical issues are evident in the record, and the vehicle has maintained compliance without advisories. The absence of faults in the latest assessment indicates the owner has addressed any prior concerns, though the brief gap between the failed and subsequent pass warrants scrutiny. The vehicle’s mileage of 65,684 miles over 12 years equates to approximately 5,474 miles annually, significantly below the UK average for its age. This low usage may indicate infrequent operation or prolonged periods of inactivity, which can accelerate wear on components like suspension bushes, brake calipers, and exhaust systems due to lack of movement. Notably, the 2023-11-13 test at 58,978 miles and 2022-11-19 test at 52,284 miles show consistent intervals, suggesting regular maintenance. However, the sparse data between 2022 and 2024—spanning 6,694 miles—raises questions about potential gaps in service history. A buyer should inspect the vehicle for signs of corrosion, particularly in underbody areas, given the low mileage and possible stagnation. Check suspension components for dry rot or stiffness, as inactivity can degrade rubber bushings. Verify brake functionality, as infrequent use may lead to seized calipers or uneven disc wear. While the MOT record shows no critical failures, the low mileage and brief failed test highlight the need for a thorough pre-purchase inspection to confirm the vehicle’s mechanical integrity beyond documented tests.
