2021 Vauxhall Combo Life Edition Turbo D S/S 1.5L Diesel · NG71 OKJ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history indicates a pattern of reactive repairs rather than proactive upkeep. While the most recent test in December 2025 at 21,423 miles passed with only a minor advisory for thin front brake pads, the previous year showed significant mechanical deplets. In November 2024, the vehicle failed on multiple safety-critical-related items including an ABS fault, a malfunctioning tyre pressure monitoring system, and a failed nearside dipped headlamp. At five years old, the recorded mileage of 21,423 miles represents low annual usage, averaging approximately 4,285 miles per year. This low mileage often masks less wear on the drivetrain and engine, but it can lead to issues with components that sit stationary. The 4,794-mile increase between the November 2024 and December 2025 tests suggests a recent uptick in usage, which coincides with the discovery of the front brake pads reaching the point of significant wear within that thirteen-month interval. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the braking system to ensure the ABS fault flagged in 2024 has been permanently rectified and not merely cleared. The nearside front tyre noted as being worn on the edge in 2024 suggests a potential alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that should be checked to prevent further tyre degradation. Additionally, the headlamp and tyre pressure monitoring system must be verified as functional, as these were specific points of failure that indicate previous lapses in basic electrical and safety attention.
