2011 Volkswagen Transporter 2.0L Diesel · J14 PCD

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 2026‑06‑22 at 179 003 miles with no defects recorded, confirming current roadworthiness. The maintenance trend shows a pattern of recurring wear items that have been monitored but not progressed to failure; the latest test indicates those issues have not escalated, so the trend is stable rather than worsening. From November 2014 (83 508 miles) to June 2026 (179 003 miles) the mileage increased by roughly 95 500 miles over 12 years, averaging about 11 900 miles per year—an expected rate for a 15‑year‑old van. MOT entries are annual with no significant gaps, providing a consistent record that reflects regular use rather than long storage periods. A buyer should inspect the rear shock absorbers for oil misting, a condition noted in 2024 and 2025. The rear tyres were flagged close to the legal limit in 2025 and front tyres showed similar wear in 2019, so tyre condition and pressure systems need verification. The front suspension components highlighted in 2023—the anti‑roll bar linkage ball joint dust cover, lower suspension arm bushes, and a slight wheel bearing play—should be examined for wear and corrosion. Finally, the rear brake discs exhibited wear in 2023 and must be checked for thickness and surface condition. These checks will confirm whether the identified wear items remain within acceptable limits.
