2020 Vauxhall Combo 1.6L Diesel · FP20 VEB

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, following a clean pass in its most recent inspection in September 2025 at 68,723 miles. This result indicates an improving maintenance trend, as the mechanical defects identified in previous years have been addressed. While the history shows instances of reactive maintenance, the lack of recent defects suggests that the vehicle is currently operating within acceptable safety parameters. The mileage profile is consistent with typical usage for a modern commercial vehicle, averaging approximately 11,454 miles per year over its six-year life. A significant gap of 22,688 miles occurred between August 2023 and August 2024, followed by a more modest accumulation of 3,871 miles in the year leading up to the 2025 test. This suggests a period of heavy annual use which generally results in even wear on drivetrain components compared to long periods of standing. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system and tyre condition given the recurring issues. The August 2024 test flagged rear brake discs as pitted and scored and the offside rear tyre as uneven worn, while the 2023 failure resulted from thin rear brake pads. Although the 2025 pass was clean, a manual inspection should check for continued caliper binding or uneven pad wear to ensure the previous disc corrosion has not masked underlying mechanical faults. Checking the suspension bushes for lateral wear is also advisable due to the mileage-related stress on the front end.
