2012 Volkswagen Transporter 2.0L Diesel · AD12 SAV

The 2012 Volkswagen Transporter presents a stable and unremarked roadworthiness status. The most recent test on 29 April 2025 at 63,411 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken four-year clean sheet. The maintenance trend shows no worsening or emerging faults across the available history. Recorded mileage stands at 63,411 against an April 2025 test, equating to roughly 4,529 miles per year from new. The annual increments are tightly controlled: 56,471 in May 2022, 58,599 in May 2023, 61,139 in April 2024, and 63,411 in April 2025. The owner added only 2,272 miles in the last twelve months. Such low, consistent use over fourteen years suggests light duty, though prolonged standing periods can permit corrosion or perished rubber components unseen in the test lane. No advisories or defects appear in any entry, so the record gives no direct signal of suspension bushes, brake discs, or structural rust requiring attention. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection beneath the chassis and wheel arches, as the MOT only captures failures at the test date. Low-mileage Transporters often hide damp-related corrosion on sills and subframes despite passing papers. Given the sparse but clean history, previous keepers appear to have maintained statutory testing without lapse. The absence of repeat consumable failures implies basic upkeep was not neglected. Verify service records independently, since the MOT alone confirms roadworthiness, not mechanical condition between tests.
