2002 Vauxhall Combo 1.7L Diesel · LD02 GHB

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, though the record indicates a pattern of immediate reactive maintenance. The most recent test in October 2021 at 163,831 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following a failure just one day prior. This suggests that minor non-conformities were addressed instantly to ensure compliance, maintaining a clean technical status without evidence of escalating mechanical failure or structural degradation in the most recent testing period. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a 24-year-old commercial vehicle, averaging approximately 6,800 miles per annum. Between April 2019 and October 2021, the vehicle covered 10,390 miles, representing a steady usage pattern of roughly 5,200 miles per year during that window. This low annual mileage generally reduces the likelihood of excessive wear on the drivetrain and suspension components, though the lack of testing data since late 2021 leaves the current state of rubber components and fluid integrity unknown for the last nearly five years. A physical inspection should focus on the structural integrity of the chassis and mounting points, as the age of the vehicle makes it susceptible to corrosion. While the MOT history does not show recurring mechanical faults in brakes or suspension, the repeated failures in 2020 and 2021 indicate the vehicle may be prone to minor items requiring attention. A buyer should specifically check for play in suspension bushes, perished brake lines, and the condition of the exhaust system, given the long interval since the last recorded test often masks the degradation of age-related components.
