VOLKSWAGEN TRANSPORTER2015 · 2.0L Diesel

The vehicle's MOT history presents a clean record with no defects or advisories recorded across all tests, including the most recent pass in March 2026 at 133,051 miles. This indicates a stable maintenance trend with no recurring mechanical or structural issues flagged by testers. The absence of any fail items or advisory notes suggests the van has been consistently presented in a roadworthy condition, though the fails on the same dates as passes likely reflect minor administrative or procedural issues rather than mechanical faults. The recorded mileage of 133,051 miles over 11 years gives an average of roughly 12,000 miles per year, which is high for a passenger vehicle but typical for a light commercial van like the Transporter. However, the mileage accumulation between recent tests has been notably low: from March 2024 to February 2025, the van covered only 3,897 miles, and from February 2025 to March 2026, just 2,796 miles. This pattern suggests the vehicle may have been used for shorter, local journeys in recent years, which can increase wear on components such as brakes, clutches, and exhaust systems due to less frequent high-speed running. Given the high overall mileage and the van's age, a buyer should prioritise a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers for wear or corrosion. Brake discs and pads should be checked for thickness and any binding in the calipers, particularly as low-mileage periods can lead to surface rust on discs. The exhaust system and chassis should be examined for structural corrosion, and the service history must confirm that the timing belt and oil changes have been completed at the manufacturer's recommended intervals.
