2021 Vauxhall Combo Life Edition S/S 1.2L Petrol · NV71 DPO

The Vauxhall Combo Life presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 13 November 2025 at 38,702 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, confirming the vehicle entered the current ownership period in sound mechanical condition. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 7,740 miles per year. The records show 33,416 miles on 24 October 2024 and 38,702 miles one year later, reflecting modest annual use of about 5,300 miles. The DVSA entry for 24 October 2024 lists both a fail and a pass at identical mileage with no defects recorded, a pattern consistent with an administrative re-test rather than a genuine mechanical fault. The history is sparse and clean, offering no advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions across either year. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion given the limited test data. The absence of recorded advisories means consumable items such as tyres, wiper blades, and brake pad thickness were within limits but remain unverified beyond the test dates. Given the low mileage and fault-free record, previous owners appear to have maintained basic upkeep. No recurring mechanical risks emerge from the official history, though the twin 24 October 2024 entries warrant confirmation that no suppressed defect existed at that test.
