2013 Vauxhall Combo 1.2L Diesel · YS13 KWH

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness, maintaining a consistently stable maintenance record over the last five years. The most recent test conducted in January 2026 at 43,038 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This streak of clean passes suggests that the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard and does not suffer from the recurring mechanical degradation typically seen in vans of this age. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,300 miles per year. Between February 2022 and January 2026, the vehicle covered only 9,739 miles, indicating very light use or long periods of inactivity. While low mileage reduces wear on drivetrain components and engine internals, such infrequent use can sometimes lead to age-related rubber perish or fluid degradation. The data shows a steady, gradual progression of roughly 1,800 to 2,800 miles between annual tests, which is a predictable usage pattern without any sudden mechanical failures. Despite the clean MOT history, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on components affected by time and low-age storage. Check for hairline cracks in perished rubber components, such as suspension bushes and tyre boots, which can become brittle over decades regardless of mileage. Inspect the brake discs for signs of surface corrosion or pitting, as low-use vehicles often suffer from light brake application. Ensure the structural integrity of the chassis and load sills remains free of hidden rust, as the MOT test only identifies surface corrosion that reaches specific thickness thresholds.
