2017 Volkswagen Transporter 2.0L Diesel · DR56 ABS

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistently clean MOT history. The most recent test conducted on 25 September 2025 at 56,838 miles resulted in no recorded defects or advisories. This streak of clean passes across the last five annual inspections indicates the vehicle has been maintained to a professional standard and does not suffer from recurring mechanical failures or progressive structural degradation. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent over the nine-year ownership period, averaging approximately 6,315 miles per year. Between September 2021 at 44,639 miles and the September 2025 test at 56,838 miles, the vehicle covered 12,199 miles, showing steady usage intervals of roughly 3,000 miles annually. This low-intensity usage suggests the van was likely used for light duties or short trips, which typically results in less wear on the drivetrain, turbocharger components, and suspension bushings compared to high-mileage counterparts. While the digital record shows no flagged faults, a physical inspection should still focus on common failure points for a Transporter of this age. A buyer should examine the chassis for early-stage corrosion, particularly around the door arches and sills, as moisture can settle even on low used vehicles. Given the low mileage, it is also vital to check the condition of rubber components, such as brake hoses and suspension boots, which can perish and crack over time regardless of the distance driven.
