2020 Vauxhall Combo 1.5L Diesel · TR12 MAT

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a history of clean passes across all recorded inspections. The most recent test on 7 July 2025 at 88,017 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, mirroring the results of the previous two examinations. This consistency suggests that the owners have maintained the vehicle to a standard that avoids immediate mechanical failure or safety-related defects. The mileage accumulation is notably high for a six-year-old van, averaging approximately 14,600 miles annually. A significant usage spike occurred between the November 2023 test at 73,950 miles and the August 2024 test at 88,007 miles, where the vehicle covered over 14,000 miles in just nine months. However, the 10-mile difference between the August 2024 and July 2025 tests indicates a period of very low use, which typically accelerates the wear on drivetrain components compared to lower mileage vehicles. While the MOT record shows no recurring faults or structural corrosion, a physical inspection should focus on components susceptible to high-mileage stress. The buyer should examine the suspension geometry for worn bushes and sagging coil springs, given the heavy usage patterns. Because the recent period of low mileage can lead to oxidation, checking for binding calipers or pitting on the discs is essential to ensure the braking system has not suffered from sitting stationary.
