2009 Vauxhall Combo 1.2L Diesel · WR09 AAK

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent inspection without any defects. The test conducted in March 2025 at 125,555 miles resulted in no recorded failures or advisories, indicating that the mechanical and structural issues identified in previous years have been addressed. While the history shows instances of failure, the trend toward a clean test sheet suggests the vehicle is currently being maintained to a standard that meets legal road requirements. At 17 years old, the recorded mileage of 125,555 miles represents an average annual of approximately 7,400 miles per year. This usage pattern is consistent with a commercial vehicle of this age, suggesting it has not been subjected to excessive heavy industrial work. The data shows a steady progression in mileage, with roughly 8,400 miles covered between March 2023 and February 2024, and another 10,715 miles between February 2024 and March 2025. This recent increase in annual mileage indicates regular use rather than periods of long-term storage. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the specific areas that caused the failures in 2023 and 2024, although the record does not detail the exact components for those faults. The recurring nature of failures suggests potential issues with suspension components, brake hardware, or emissions systems. Given the age of the Vauxhall Combo, a close examination for structural corrosion on the sills and mounting points is essential to ensure the chassis remains sound. Checking for binding calipers and the condition of suspension bushes will help determine if the repairs made prior to the recent passes are holding up under load.
