2019 Vauxhall Combo 1.6L Diesel · JT12 HRT

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on March 4 2026 at 62,215 miles with no defects recorded. This represents an improving trend in maintenance standards compared to the failure in March 2025. While the history shows a pattern of minor consumable and lighting failures, the latest clean sheet indicates that the previous owner has addressed the outstanding mechanical and regulatory issues identified in earlier cycles. The mileage pattern is consistent with a seven-year-old commercial vehicle, averaging approximately 8,888 miles per year. The data shows steady accumulation, moving from 24,910 miles in March 2022 to 62,215 miles in 2026. There are no significant gaps in usage or erratic spikes in mileage between tests, which suggests regular use rather than deterioration resulting from long periods of standing, which is generally beneficial for the preservation of rubber components, seals, and braking systems. A buyer should pay close attention to the suspension and alignment, as the record reveals a recurring issue with tyres worn to the legal limit across 2022, 2024, and 2025. The tester frequently flagged nearside and offside front tyres worn on edges, which often points to incorrect wheel geometry or worn suspension bushes and components. Additionally, the 2023 failure for thin offside rear brake pads necessitates a physical inspection of the remaining friction material to ensure even wear across the axle. The multiple failures related to registration plates and inoperative lighting lamps between 2024 and 2025 suggest a history of reactive maintenance rather than proactive checks. While these issues were resolved for the March 2026 test, the buyer should verify that all external lighting and headlamp aim are currently functional and adjusted. The absence of structural corrosion or brake advisories in the record is a positive indicator, but the history of tyre wear remains the primary technical concern for this vehicle's mechanical health.
