2009 Vauxhall Combo 1.2L Diesel · WN09 FYW

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. It passed its most recent MOT on 25 September 2025 at 104,511 miles with no defects recorded. While the record shows failures on 22 September 2025 and 27 September 2024, the absence of specific defect descriptions suggests these were likely administrative errors or minor issues rectified immediately. The mileage pattern is consistent with the vehicle's age. It covered 4,586 miles between the October 2024 test at 101,923 miles and the September 2025 test at 104,511 miles. This aligns with the long-term average of approximately 6,148 miles per year. There are no signs of erratic usage or prolonged periods of standing that would typically cause seal degradation or battery failure. A clean MOT history on a 17 year old Vauxhall Combo is unusual and does not provide a complete picture of the mechanical health. The lack of recorded advisories for suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake disc corrosion across the last three years is atypical for this model. A buyer should specifically inspect the chassis and sills for structural rust, as these are common failure points that may have been overlooked or repaired outside of the MOT process. Verify the condition of the timing belt and water pump. The DVSA record does not track scheduled maintenance, and at 104,511 miles, these components are critical failure points if they have not been replaced according to the manufacturer's intervals. Check for any signs of oil leaks around the engine block and examine the tyre tread depths to ensure the vehicle has been maintained beyond the minimum legal requirements.
