2017 Volkswagen Transporter 2.0L Diesel · WJ17 AAF

The vehicle's roadworthiness status is currently uncertain due to a contradictory outcome in the 2025 MOT test at 129,264 miles. The tester failed the vehicle, but no defects were recorded, which is unusual. This inconsistency raises questions about the vehicle's reliability and suggests that further investigation is required. The recorded mileage of 129,264 miles at 9 years old translates to an average annual mileage of 14,363 miles, which is higher than expected for a vehicle of this age. The mileage pattern is particularly notable for the rapid accumulation of 21,751 miles between the 2023 and 2025 tests, which is a significant increase in just two years. This suggests that the vehicle has been used extensively in the past two years, which may contribute to its higher-than-average mileage. A buyer should inspect the vehicle's suspension and brakes in person, as the 2023 test at 105,523 miles and the 2025 test at 129,264 miles both flagged binding rear brakes, which is a serious concern. Furthermore, the vehicle has failed twice on tyre tread, suggesting that basic upkeep was skipped. The buyer should also check for signs of corrosion, particularly on the undercarriage, as the vehicle's age and mileage increase the risk of rust damage.
