2019 Vauxhall Combo 1.5L Diesel · D1 KED

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT following its most recent test on 31 March 2026 at 114,943 miles. While the vehicle passed, the tester flagged front brake pads wearing thin. The maintenance trend appears to be reactive rather than preventative, as the record shows a recurring pattern of wear-related advisories across the braking and tyre systems. The mileage accumulation is significant for a 2019 vehicle, averaging approximately 16,420 miles per year. Between the April 2025 test at 109,798 miles and the March 2026 test at 114,943 miles, the vehicle covered 5,145 miles in under a year. This high usage rate explains the frequent appearance of consumable wear items. The data shows a steady increase in mileage without any significant periods of inactivity, suggesting the vehicle is used regularly for long-distance or high-frequency transit. A prospective buyer should focus on the braking system and suspension components during a physical inspection. The MOT history shows a sequence of issues including pitted and scored rear brake discs in February 2024, a worn nearside rear tyre in April 2025, and thinning front pads in March 2026. This suggests the braking components and tyres are reaching the end of their service life in quick succession. The failure in June 2023 due to excessive play in the nearside front track rod end indicates that steering and suspension components are subject to heavy wear. Check the condition of all suspension bushes, ball joints, and steering linkages to ensure no further play has developed. Given the high mileage and the history of pitted brake discs, a thorough inspection of the brake calipers and disc thickness is necessary to avoid immediate replacement costs. The vehicle appears to be a high-use workhorse that requires consistent attention to its consumable parts to maintain roadworthiness.
