2016 Vauxhall Combo 1.2L Diesel · ND65 YWT

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with an improving maintenance trend. Following the most recent test on January 23, 2025 at 67,272 miles, the car passed with no defects recorded, indicating that any mechanical or structural issues causing previous failures have been addressed. The transition from failures to a clean pass in the two most recent testing cycles suggests the current ownership is proactive in rectifying immediate faults identified by the DVSA. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-use light commercial vehicle, averaging approximately 6,700 miles per year. Between January 2023 at 49,224 miles and January 2024 at 58,684 miles, the vehicle covered roughly 9,400 miles, followed by an additional 8,588 miles leading up to the January 2025 test. This steady accumulation suggests regular use which generally benefits drivetrain components and suspension seals compared to high-mileage examples, though low annual mileage can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber components and brake fluid moisture. While the most recent record is clean, the failures in January 2023 and January 2024 necessitate a close physical inspection of the areas that previously caused rejection. Since the specific failure reasons were not detailed in the provided summary, a buyer should check for signs of wear on suspension bushes, coil springs, and potential corrosion on the brake lines. Given the age of the vehicle, a thorough check of the structural integrity around the sills and rear mounting points is essential to ensure that no hidden rust is developing despite the recent clean pass results.
