2009 Vauxhall Combo 1.2L Diesel · WR09 AAV

This Vauxhall Combo presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the available data. The most recent test on 11 October 2024 resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, suggesting the vehicle met all minimum legal requirements at that time. The absence of advisories across the last three years indicates a vehicle that is either well-maintained or has had major components replaced proactively. The mileage pattern is consistent with the age of the vehicle. It covered 12,020 miles between the October 2022 test at 142,536 miles and the October 2024 test at 154,556 miles. This averages to roughly 6,000 miles per year over that specific period, which is slightly lower than the overall lifetime average of 9,092 miles per year. There are no erratic jumps in mileage to suggest undisclosed heavy commercial use or prolonged periods of standing. The MOT history is unusually clean for a 17 year old commercial vehicle, showing no recorded failures for mechanical or structural defects. While the record shows failures on 10 October 2023 and 11 October 2024, these were resolved on the same or following day without specific defects being logged in the public summary. This suggests minor administrative or quick-fix issues rather than systemic mechanical failure. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on areas the MOT tester may have overlooked or that do not trigger a failure. Given the age and typical vulnerabilities of this model, check for corrosion on the chassis rails and sills. Inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for fatigue, as these often wear out at this mileage regardless of a clean test sheet. Finally, verify the service history for timing belt and water pump replacements, as these critical maintenance items are not captured in a standard MOT check.
