2015 Vauxhall Combo 1.6L Diesel · MM64 LXK

The vehicle presents a mixed maintenance profile, showing a trend of resolving minor electrical and consumable issues but introducing new concerns regarding corrosion and glass integrity. The most recent test on 25 November 2025 at 119,675 miles resulted in a pass, but only after addressing two tyres with insufficient tread depth. While the vehicle is currently roadworthy, the appearance of silencer corrosion and windscreen damage suggests a shift from simple bulb replacements to more structural and exterior maintenance requirements. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with a typical commercial or high-use passenger vehicle. The record shows 103,880 miles in December 2023, rising to 111,993 miles in November 2024, and reaching 119,675 miles by November 2025. This represents an average of roughly 8,000 miles per year over the last two years, which is slightly lower than the vehicle's lifetime average of 10,880 miles per year. This steady usage pattern suggests the vehicle has not been subject to extreme periods of inactivity or sudden, excessive mileage spikes. A prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on the exhaust system and the underside of the vehicle. The November 2024 failure noted a split rear rubber support for the silencer, and the November 2025 test flagged corrosion on the offside rear silencer outer skin. Although the corrosion was not blowing at the time of testing, it indicates the beginning of structural degradation in the exhaust assembly. Continued monitoring of the exhaust mounting points and the extent of surface rust on the chassis is necessary to ensure this does not progress into a more costly failure. The history also indicates a pattern of neglecting basic consumables, evidenced by the failed tyre tread depths in the 2025 test and previous bulb failures in 2024. While these are minor maintenance items, they suggest the previous owner may have operated the vehicle with minimal attention to routine upkeep. Beyond the exhaust, the windscreen chips noted in the latest report should be checked to ensure they do not spread, potentially requiring a full replacement.
