2016 Volkswagen Transporter 2.0L Diesel · M11 WDG

The vehicle is currently not roadworthy; the most recent MOT on 11 June 2025 at 92 333 miles has expired, leaving the transporter over a year without a valid certificate. The maintenance trend is stable – the 2025 test and the preceding 2024 and 2023 passes all recorded no defects, indicating consistent basic upkeep. The only blemish is a failed test on 16 February 2023 at 64 506 miles, despite the entry showing no recorded defects, suggesting a transient issue that was later resolved. Mileage progression shows a fairly even accumulation: from 64 506 miles in February 2023 to 65 835 miles in July 2023 (1 329 miles), then to 78 755 miles a year later (12 920 miles), and finally to 92 333 miles twelve months after that (13 578 miles). This averages roughly 9 200 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage for a ten‑year‑old panel van. The data is sparse between 2023 and 2024, but the incremental rises are consistent rather than erratic. A prospective buyer should focus inspection on the braking system, suspension and structural condition. Check the front and rear brake discs and calipers for uneven wear or binding, and examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for corrosion or excessive play. Look for any signs of rust around wheel arches, underbody panels and the rear bulkhead, as the 2023 failure may have been related to emissions or structural integrity. Tyre tread depth should be measured across the contact patch, and the exhaust system inspected for cracks or corrosion. Finally, verify that the service history includes regular oil and filter changes, as the clean MOT record does not guarantee that routine maintenance was performed.
