2020 Vauxhall Combo 2300 Sportive TD S/S 1.5L Diesel · DN70 CBU

The most recent MOT entry is a PASS recorded on 2023‑10‑03 at 78,443 miles, yet a concurrent FAIL on the same date notes an offside front headlamp aim with an obviously incorrect projected beam and front tyres worn close to the legal limit. The dual outcome on one day indicates the vehicle was retested after repairs, and the pattern of tyre wear and headlamp misalignment suggests a stable but recurring maintenance issue rather than a worsening condition. The vehicle is dated 2020 and carries 78,443 miles, which equates to roughly 13,000 miles per year—a high rate for its age. However, the MOT history shows no mileage change between the two tests, and the gap from the last recorded test in October 2023 to today (July 2026) spans nearly three years. This static mileage combined with the long interval points to either extended periods of inactivity or incomplete documentation, both of which raise questions about true usage and the accuracy of the recorded wear. A buyer should inspect the front tyres for edge wear; both nearside and offside fronts were flagged as worn close to the legal limit, a condition that often reflects suspension bush deterioration or misalignment of the steering geometry. The headlamp aim fault requires a visual check of the beam projection to ensure it meets DVSA standards and does not compromise night‑time visibility. Finally, given the age and the static mileage record, a thorough physical examination of the front chassis, suspension mounts, and any signs of corrosion is advisable to confirm structural integrity before purchase.
