2010 Volkswagen Transporter 2.0L Diesel · RJ60 AEW

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-04-16 at 180,922 miles showed a pass with no defects recorded, but the prior test on 2025-04-15 at the same mileage resulted in a failure without recorded defects. This inconsistency suggests potential administrative errors or unreported issues, though the absence of specific faults in both tests implies no immediate mechanical risks. The trend from 2022 to 2025 shows stable roadworthiness, with all tests passing except the unexplained failure, indicating no worsening issues in the final 18 months. Mileage progression from 160,597 miles in 2022 to 180,922 miles in 2025 reflects an average annual increase of 6,774 miles, below the 11,308-mile average for its age. This slower accumulation could indicate reduced usage or periods of inactivity, which may affect components like the exhaust system, battery, and fluid longevity. The MOT record lacks gaps, with tests conducted every 11–15 months, suggesting consistent maintenance practices, though the lack of detailed defect reports limits insight into wear patterns. A buyer should prioritize inspecting the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, given the vehicle’s age, and check brake components for corrosion or uneven wear, as these are common in high-mileage vehicles. Structural integrity should also be assessed, particularly around the chassis and body panels, to identify hidden rust or damage. While the MOT history shows no critical failures, the unexplained failure and sparse defect data mean a physical inspection is essential to confirm the vehicle’s condition.
