2014 Volkswagen Crafter 2.0L Diesel · AF14 JXL

The Volkswagen Crafter presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 8 October 2025 at 125,792 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the four preceding annual tests from 2022 to 2024 also passed clean. The only blemish is a failure on 29 September 2022 at 122,792 miles, which the record shows with no defects listed, indicating the tester likely rejected the vehicle on administrative or unlogged grounds before a clean pass six days later on 5 October 2022 at 122,828 miles. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a twelve-year-old van. The record shows 122,792 miles in September 2022 rising to 125,792 miles by October 2025, a gain of just 3,000 miles across three years. Annual use fell well below the 10,483-mile average, with only 1,815 miles added between the October 2023 and September 2024 tests. Such low recent use suggests prolonged standing periods, which can allow corrosion, seized brake calipers, and degraded suspension bushes to develop unseen. The absence of recorded advisories across every test means no recurring wear items such as tyres, brake discs, or exhaust emissions were flagged. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity beneath the chassis and wheel arches given the low-use pattern, as standing vans commonly suffer hidden rust. The brake system and suspension components warrant hands-on checks for binding calipers or perished rubber mounts that a clean MOT sheet will not reveal.
