2016 Volkswagen Transporter 2.0L Diesel · B9 TBM

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness based on a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted in November 2025 at 90,497 miles resulted in no defects recorded, indicating that the mechanical and structural components currently meet regulatory requirements. This trend of clean passes over the last five years suggests that the previous owners maintained the vehicle proactively and addressed potential issues before they could escalate into formal test failures. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a ten-year-old Transporter, averaging approximately 9,000 miles per annum. Between November 2021 at 44,601 miles and November 2025 at 90,497 miles, the vehicle covered roughly 46,000 miles, showing steady and predictable use. There are no signs of erratic mileage accumulation or long periods of inactivity that would suggest the vehicle sat neglected, which is generally beneficial for seals, rubber components, and braking systems that degrade when exposed to the elements without regular use. While the MOT record shows no recorded advisories or faults, a physical inspection should focus on common Transporter wear points specific to this mileage and age. Given the mileage is nearing 90,000 miles, the buyer should inspect the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of cracking or fatigue, as these often degrade without triggering an MOT failure. Checking for early-stage surface corrosion on the sills and wheel arches is also advisable, as MOT testers only flag structural rust once it compromises the integrity of the metal. verifying the brake discs for thinning or uneven wear will ensure the clean test history reflects the actual current state of the stopping system.
