2019 Volkswagen Transporter T28 Startline TDI 2.0L Diesel · AF69 WLW

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-12-09 at 86,129 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable roadworthiness status. Previous tests from 2024 and 2023 also passed, though a failed test on 2024-12-13 at 73,634 miles is noted without recorded defects. This suggests either a procedural error or an unresolved issue that was later resolved, as the subsequent test at the same mileage passed. No recurring mechanical faults are evident in the record, and the vehicle has maintained compliance with safety standards over the past three years. The mileage progression reveals a sharp increase from 29,687 miles in 2022 to 51,343 in 2023, then to 73,634 in 2024, and finally 86,129 in 2025. This equates to an average of 12,304 miles annually, exceeding typical usage for a seven-year-old vehicle. The rapid accumulation raises concerns about accelerated wear on consumables like tyres and brake components, though no such issues were flagged in the tests. The lack of defects in the most recent MOT is positive, but the high mileage implies potential strain on suspension bushes, coil springs, and exhaust emissions systems, which may require closer inspection. A buyer should prioritise checking the suspension for worn bushes or coil springs, as high mileage often exacerbates these issues. The brake system, including calipers and discs, should be examined for uneven wear or binding, particularly given the vehicle’s usage pattern. Structural corrosion, especially in the underbody or chassis, warrants scrutiny, as heavy use can accelerate rust in vulnerable areas. While the MOT history shows no critical failures, the vehicle’s high mileage and rapid accumulation suggest proactive maintenance is essential to sustain roadworthiness beyond the next test.
