2020 Vauxhall Combo 2300 Sportive TD S/S 1.5L Diesel · AL20 AJS

The vehicle holds a current roadworthy status, having cleared its most recent MOT on 7 November 2025 with no advisories or failures recorded. Across the three tests documented in this history (November 2023, November 2024, and November 2025), every examination resulted in a clean pass with zero defects or advisory notes logged by the tester. This represents an unbroken pattern of compliance at successive annual tests, suggesting that, within the narrow scope of items inspected under the MOT regime, no component has yet reached a threshold requiring comment. The record itself, however, only spans roughly two years of testing and cannot speak to the broader mechanical condition or service regime outside the statutory checks. Mileage accumulation sits at 53,251 miles over approximately six years of service, averaging around 8,875 miles annually. This places the vehicle close to the typical usage band for its age and body type. The MOT history covers only the period from late 2023 onwards, meaning mileage progression between earlier tests is not visible from the supplied record. Annual mileage between the three recorded tests cannot be precisely verified without odometer readings at each test, but the overall figure aligns with moderate rather than intensive commercial or private use. A clean advisory record over consecutive tests does at least indicate that wear-related items such as tyres, brake components, and visible suspension parts have not deteriorated to the point of tester concern during this window. Given the absence of flagged defects, a prospective buyer has limited diagnostic leads from the MOT record itself. A physical inspection should still focus on areas the MOT does not fully cover, particularly the condition of the timing belt or chain service interval if due, clutch operation, turbo and diesel particulate filter behaviour on cold starts, and any warning lights on the dashboard. Visual checks for oil leaks from the engine and gearbox, condition of the coolant and brake fluid, and thorough examination of the underbody for corrosion or structural damage remain advisable, especially around load-bearing areas, jacking points, and the rear axle on a commercial-derived vehicle of this age. Steering play, uneven tyre wear, and any binding or pulling under braking would also warrant a road test, as MOT advisories on such items are not always issued at the borderline. Overall, the documented MOT history is clean but brief, offering no evidence of recurring faults, structural concern, or escalating mechanical wear. A buyer should treat the record as a baseline of statutory compliance rather than a comprehensive health certificate, and prioritise an independent pre-purchase inspection to confirm the condition of drivetrain, suspension, and corrosion-prone areas not fully examined during routine MOT testing. Buying Score: 72 / 100. Risk Level: Low.
