2015 VOLKSWAGEN TRANSPORTER2.0L Diesel

The vehicle remains in a roadworthy condition, evidenced by the most recent MOT pass on 9 July 2026 at 71,826 miles which returned no defects. The overall maintenance trend is currently stable and improving, as the mechanical issues identified in previous years have clearly been addressed. The clean results from both the 2025 and 2026 tests indicate that the previous owner has proactively maintained the suspension components. The mileage pattern is consistent with an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,500 miles per year over its lifespan. There is a notable gap in the records between October 2020 and July 2022, during which the vehicle covered only 4,274 miles. Since 2022, the usage has remained steady, with roughly 6,000 to 7,000 miles annually. This relatively low annual mileage suggests light use, which generally preserves the drivetrain and interior components compared to high-mileage vans. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front suspension assembly, as the history shows a recurring issue with anti-roll bar linkages. The tester flagged a severely deteriorated dust cover in 2023 and subsequent play in both front ball joints by 2024. While these were resolved by the 2025 test, an inspector should verify there is no remaining play in the linkages and that the rubber boots remain intact. Given the age of the Transporter, a standard check of the chassis for corrosion, particularly around the sills and floor pans, remains necessary despite the lack of structural advisories in the recent records.
