2017 Vauxhall Combo 1.2L Diesel · DA17 YBK

The Vauxhall Combo presents as roadworthy following the September 2025 test cycle, with the most recent pass recorded on 11 September 2025 at 87,225 miles showing no defects. The maintenance trend is stable across the five-year record, with four passes and a single failure that carried no listed defects. The September 2025 failure at 87,212 miles was cleared the next day with a clean pass, suggesting an administrative or unrecorded minor rectification rather than a mechanical defect. Annual mileage averages 9,692 against the vehicle's nine-year age, a typical use profile for a 2017 light van. The records show consistent yearly testing each September from 2022 through 2025, with odometer readings climbing from 62,619 miles in September 2022 to 87,225 miles in September 2025. No gaps or abrupt accumulation appear; the roughly 7,000 to 8,700 miles added per year reflect steady, moderate service. The clean advisory history across all entries indicates no flagged corrosion, suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions concerns at test. Given the absent advisories and defect-free passes, the buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion, as MOT testers may miss early surface rust on a van of this age. Verify the front suspension coil springs and rear trailing arm bushes for fatigue, and confirm brake caliper operation given the 2025 failure with no recorded fault. Check tyre sidewall condition and tread despite no test flags, since consumable wear is not always noted between annual tests.
