life span of lynx electronic combi boiler?

what is the life span of above on a legallity basis before it should be changed, I recently had a new part fitted as hot water is not functioning properly and heatng engineer felt the new part would not make a great difference, the boiler was also serviced and was aged at approx 15 plus years

Your boiler was last made in 1972
It has a power rating of 23.45kW
It is very inefficient at 65% compared to a modern boiler's 90%
It is eligible for the £400 scrappage scheme but not in Wales
You may continue to use it legally until it becomes (is declared) unsafe
There is no obligation on you otherwise to replace it - but I think I would if it were mine
