2010 Vauxhall Combo 1.2L Diesel · WM59 VGV

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on its recent history. The most recent MOT test on 20 November 2025 at 88,338 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following a failure just nine days prior at 88,308 miles. This brief failure suggests a minor, easily rectified issue, such as a blown bulb or a minor sensor adjustment, which was addressed immediately to secure the re-test. Since the recorded test in May 2022, the vehicle has maintained a clean record without any reported advisories or mechanical failures. The mileage pattern is notably low for a sixteen-year-old van, averaging approximately 5,500 miles per year. The data shows a significant jump of 18,107 miles between November 2024 and November 2025, compared to the more modest increase of 8,494 miles in the preceding year-long period. While the low annual mileage generally reduces wear on the engine and drivetrain, long periods of inactivity can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components and fluid acidity. The consistency of the passes over the last three years suggests the vehicle is used regularly rather than sitting stationary for extended months. Because the MOT record shows no recurring mechanical faults, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on common age-related issues for this model that do not always trigger a failure. Check the structural integrity specifically around the sills and wheel arches, where rust often begins on Vauxhall vans. Given the low mileage, verify the condition of the brake calipers and discs, as these can corrode or seize from lack of use. Inspect the suspension bushes and split boots for cracking to ensure the low mileage has not masked material fatigue over time.
