Our Verdict

Proceed with caution and a thorough inspection before buying this high-mileage 2012 Volkswagen Transporter. The recent clean MOT is reassuring, but its history shows repeated advisories and a failure in 2024 that suggest ongoing wear.

Given the 201,818 miles on this BF62ACY Transporter, prioritise a full service history to confirm regular oil changes and cambelt intervals on the 1968cc diesel unit. The December 2024 failure for an Offside Front tyre not fitted per sidewall instructions and anti-roll bar dust cover shows previous owner neglect, so verify these were properly corrected. Negotiate on price reflecting the high mileage and the worn components noted in 2023 and 2024 MOTs such as brake discs and shock absorber bushes.
