2016 Vauxhall Combo 1.2L Diesel · FN66 KYK

The Vauxhall Combo presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent passed MOT on 17 February 2025 at 85,650 miles recording no defects. The February 2025 test sequence shows a fail and pass on the same day at identical mileage, with no defects listed against either outcome, indicating an administrative correction rather than a mechanical fault. Prior to that, the vehicle cleared every annual examination without advisories, so no worsening pattern or recurring defect has emerged across the available history. Annual mileage sits at a typical 8,565 per year for a ten-year-old van, with the record showing 62,805 miles at the June 2023 test, 72,211 at the February 2024 fail, and 85,650 by February 2025. That equates to roughly 10,000 miles in the first eleven months and 13,400 in the following twelve, a modest and consistent accumulation that suggests regular light commercial use rather than standing or hard fleet cycling. The clean pass sheets across three years imply the previous keeper kept basic consumables and structure within test limits, though the sparse advisory column gives little insight into worn-but-passing items. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the age and mileage, as MOT passes with zero advisories often mask incipient wear the tester judged non-notifiable. The same-day fail-pass in February 2025 warrants a check of the V5C and test certificate to confirm no suppressed defect behind the duplicate entry. Examine sills, chassis legs, and floor pan for corrosion, and verify tyre tread depth and sidewall condition despite no advisories being raised.
