2015 VOLKSWAGEN TRANSPORTER2.0L DIESEL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a recent shift toward reactive repairs. While it passed the most recent test on 11 May 2026 at 124,847 miles, it failed just three days prior due to multiple safety-critical defects. The transition from a clean record in 2023 to a series of failures and advisories suggests the owner is now only addressing issues when prompted by the tester rather than performing proactive preventative maintenance. The mileage pattern remains consistent with an eleven-year-old Transporter, averaging approximately 11,350 miles per year. The record shows a steady accumulation of roughly 9,000 miles between January 2023 and January 2024, followed by a sharper increase of nearly 20,000 miles between early 2024 and 2026. This recent usage indicates the vehicle is being used heavily currently, which explains the accelerated wear observed on consumables like tyres and lighting components in the recent 2026 MOT entries. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension, as the May 2026 test flagged corrosion on both front coil springs. Corrosion on these components often leads to structural failure if not treated. The presence of a distorted nearside rear road wheel is also a concern, as it suggests a significant impact that may have affected the wheel alignment, hub bearing, or rear suspension geometry. Furthermore, the recurring issue of inadequate load indices and uneven tyre wear across 2024, 2025, and 2026 indicates a lack of attention to correct tyre specifications and alignment, which puts undue strain on the drivetrain and suspension bushes.
