2019 Volkswagen Transporter T28 Trendline TDI 2.0L Diesel · FN69 LNU

The vehicle currently holds a clean roadworthiness status with a maintenance trend that has stabilised recently. The most recent test on 31 October 2025 at 122,947 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the mechanical and safety issues identified in previous years were addressed. While the history shows intermittent failures related to minor electrical and consumable items, the last two annual passes suggest the vehicle is currently being maintained to a standard. The mileage profile reflects high usage, totalling 122,947 miles over seven years, which averages to approximately 17,500 miles per annum. There is a significant surge in usage between November 2023 (84,640 miles) and December 2024 (106,932 miles), where the vehicle covered over 22,000 miles in just thirteen months. This rapid accumulation typically places accelerated strain on the drivetrain, suspension components, and braking system compared to lower-mileage examples. A buyer should focus their inspection on the front suspension and alignment due to recurring issues. The December 2022 at 65,988 miles flagged a nearside front tyre worn on the outer edge, which often points to incorrect geometry or worn ball joints and suspension bushes. Given the high annual mileage, a physical check of the coil springs and anti-roll bars is essential to ensure no fatigue cracking has developed. The braking system also warrants scrutiny as the record shows a rear inner brake pad reaching the legal 1.5mm limit in 2022. While the vehicle has passed since, the high mileage suggests a thorough check for uneven wear on the discs or binding calipers. The history of sidewall damage on tyres in 2022 and 2023 suggests previous owners may have neglected basic checks, so the current condition of all four tyres should be verified for structural integrity.
