VOLKSWAGEN CRAFTER2014 · 2.0L Diesel

The vehicle currently maintains a stable roadworthiness status with a clean record of passes over the last four years. The most recent test on 12 September 2025 at 105,731 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the vehicle failed its test two days prior on 10 September 2025, the record lists no specific defects for that failure, suggesting a minor administrative or easily rectified issue that was resolved immediately. The mileage pattern is consistent and typical for a twelve year old commercial vehicle. It has covered approximately 30,000 miles between September 2022 and September 2025, averaging roughly 10,000 miles per year during this period. The gap between the August 2024 test at 95,387 miles and the September 2025 test at 105,731 miles shows a steady usage rate without any erratic spikes or long periods of inactivity. The absence of advisories across multiple years is unusual for a vehicle of this age and type. The record shows no mentions of corrosion, worn suspension bushes, or brake disc degradation, which are common failure points for the Crafter. This suggests a high standard of preventative maintenance or a vehicle that has operated in a low-stress environment. A physical inspection should focus on areas the MOT tester may have overlooked or that do not trigger a failure. Check for structural rust on the chassis and sills, as these often deteriorate before becoming an MOT failure. Verify the condition of the clutch and gearbox operation, as the DVSA record provides no data on drivetrain health beyond basic roadworthiness.
