2022 VOLKSWAGEN CRAFTER2.0L Diesel

The vehicle presents a stable and currently sound roadworthiness status. The most recent MOT test on 15 January 2026 at 28,430 miles resulted in a pass with zero defects recorded. This indicates the van met all required safety and emissions standards at that time. Given the absence of any advisories or failures in the available record, the maintenance trend appears stable, though the limited testing history restricts a long-term evaluation. At four years old with 28,430 miles on the clock, the Crafter has averaged roughly 7,108 miles per year. This is a typical annual accumulation for a commercial vehicle of this age, suggesting consistent, light-to-moderate use rather than prolonged standing or high-intensity fleet work. The mileage recorded at the January 2026 test aligns perfectly with this steady usage pattern. However, the official record lacks prior test entries, which is expected given the three-year MOT exemption, meaning there is no historical mileage progression to verify or identify anomalies. A clean MOT record confirms baseline compliance but does not replace a physical inspection. A buyer should thoroughly examine the structural integrity of the chassis and load area, checking for corrosion or impact damage common in commercial vans. Suspension components, including coil springs and bushes, require close scrutiny for wear, as do the condition of the brake discs and calipers for signs of binding or uneven wear. Tyre tread depth and sidewall condition must also be verified, as commercial vehicles often suffer from kerbing damage and accelerated wear despite low overall mileage.
