2012 Volkswagen Transporter 2.0L Diesel · GJ62 AAE

This Volkswagen Transporter is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 1 April 2026 at 83,907 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the vehicle failed its tests on 31 March 2026 and 28 January 2025, the records show these were resolved immediately on the same or following day. The absence of any listed advisories across the last three years suggests a vehicle that is kept in a high state of mechanical repair. The mileage is notably low for a 14 year old commercial vehicle, averaging roughly 5,993 miles per year. There was a significant increase in usage between January 2024 and January 2025, where the odometer rose from 68,422 to 75,760 miles. A further 8,147 miles were covered between January 2025 and April 2026. This pattern indicates the vehicle has moved from light use into a more consistent operational cycle. Despite the clean MOT history, the low overall mileage and the nature of this model necessitate a physical inspection of specific areas. A buyer should check for signs of corrosion on the chassis and sills, as these are common failure points for Transporters that do not show frequent wear-and-tear defects. The lack of recorded brake or suspension issues in the history is positive, but the low mileage can sometimes mask perished rubber bushes or seized calipers due to inactivity. Inspect the tyre dates and the condition of the engine oil to ensure the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of standing. The record shows no recurring mechanical faults, which implies a disciplined approach to maintenance by the previous owners. Focus the physical appraisal on structural integrity and fluid leaks to complement the clean DVSA data.
