VOLKSWAGEN CRAFTER2020 · 2.0L Diesel

The Volkswagen Crafter presents a current roadworthy status, with the most recent DVSA test on 18 June 2025 at 105,144 miles returning a pass and no defects recorded. Maintenance trend across the available history remains stable, showing no advisories or mechanical flags across four consecutive annual examinations. On 12 June 2023 the vehicle first failed then passed on the same day at 74,955 miles, both entries showing no defects, an administrative anomaly rather than a recorded fault. Registered in 2020, the van has covered approximately 105,144 miles over six years, averaging 17,524 miles per year, a high figure for its age and indicative of sustained commercial use. The record shows 74,955 miles on 12 June 2023, jumping to 99,778 miles by 6 June 2024, a 24,823-mile accumulation in under twelve months. The following year to 18 June 2025 added only 5,366 miles, suggesting a reduction in operational demand. Sparse but clean annual tests reveal no gaps beyond standard yearly cadence. Despite the absence of logged defects, the high mileage and light commercial duty warrant a physical inspection of consumable and structural items. The buyer should examine suspension bushes, coil springs, and steering joints for wear not yet surfaced in MOT data. Brake discs, calipers, and pad thickness require measurement, as does exhaust emissions integrity and underbody corrosion, particularly around chassis rails and sills. The identical-date fail and pass from June 2023 merits a DVSA data check to confirm no omitted advisory. Prior owners maintained MOT compliance but the low defect count at high mileage implies either meticulous upkeep or tests conducted under favourable conditions. A pre-purchase inspection should verify tyre tread depth and sidewall condition, given the load the Crafter likely carried.
