2014 Vauxhall Combo 1.2L Diesel · DX64 WHD

This Vauxhall Combo presents a clean MOT history with no recorded defects across its five most recent tests, including the most recent examination on 11 September 2024 at 124,970 miles. The vehicle passed without advisories or failures, save for a single administrative fail on 6 September 2024—likely a procedural oversight rather than a mechanical issue. The trend is stable, with consistent passes over the past three years, suggesting no recurring structural or safety-critical problems. The absence of advisories on wear items like tyres, brakes, or suspension components implies either diligent maintenance or benign usage conditions. The mileage accumulation aligns closely with typical expectations for a 12-year-old vehicle, averaging around 10,414 miles per year. There are no sudden spikes or prolonged gaps—mileage increased steadily from 89,662 miles in August 2021 to 124,970 miles in September 2024, with no more than 12,745 miles covered annually. This consistency reduces concerns about neglected maintenance or aggressive driving patterns, though it does not preclude the need for a thorough pre-purchase inspection. Given the lack of MOT advisories, a buyer should still verify key areas in person. Pay particular attention to the suspension—check for worn bushes, degraded coil springs, or uneven tyre wear, which could indicate alignment issues. Inspect the brake system thoroughly, including caliper operation, disc thickness, and pad condition, even though no MOT flags were raised. Structural integrity is another priority: examine the floor pans, sills, and rear wheel arches for hidden corrosion, especially in a vehicle of this age. Finally, confirm the exhaust system is secure and free of leaks, as emissions compliance was not explicitly noted in the records. While the MOT history is reassuring, the absence of advisories does not guarantee the vehicle has been meticulously maintained. A pre-purchase inspection by a qualified mechanic remains essential to confirm no deferred repairs or hidden wear exist beyond what the MOT tester was required to assess.
