2014 Volkswagen Transporter 2.0L Diesel · AE14 VFZ

The 2014 Volkswagen Transporter presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 11 March 2026 at 146,151 miles passed with no defects recorded, following a clean pass on 14 March 2025 at 135,945 miles. The vehicle shows no recurring advisories or mechanical faults across the five-year MOT span, indicating consistent compliance with DVSA standards. Recorded mileage sits at 146,151 against an estimated annual average of 12,179, which is high for a twelve-year-old van but reflects steady commercial use rather than neglect. The tests show linear accumulation: 107,737 miles in February 2023, 122,309 in February 2024, 135,945 in March 2025, and 146,151 in March 2026. A two-day gap between the 12 March 2025 failure and 14 March 2025 pass at near-identical mileage (135,943 to 135,945) suggests a minor administrative or retest issue, as no defects were listed on either entry. The clean MOT history gives no cause for alarm on suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or structural corrosion. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of underbody rust, drivetrain wear, and tyre condition given the high mileage, as these consumables fall outside MOT failure thresholds until critically degraded. Previous owners maintained the vehicle to pass standard each year with no flagged binding calipers, exhaust emissions breaches, or chassis defects. That pattern implies disciplined servicing, though the 2025 double-entry warrants confirmation the retest addressed no hidden fault.
