2014 Volkswagen Crafter 2.0L Diesel · BF63 BWL

This vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable and improving maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 4 February 2026 at 85,766 miles passed with no defects recorded. This follows two previous clean passes in February 2025 and February 2024, indicating the vehicle has been kept in a consistent state of repair over the last three years. The mileage pattern is typical for a twelve year old commercial vehicle, averaging roughly 7,147 miles per year. The distance covered between the January 2023 test at 71,692 miles and the February 2026 test at 85,766 miles shows a steady usage rate of approximately 4,000 to 5,000 miles annually. There are no erratic jumps or prolonged periods of inactivity that would suggest hidden mechanical deterioration. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the brake lines and exhaust system. The failure on 12 January 2023 highlighted corroded brake pipes that had been greased to mask the rust, alongside a severely corroded front exhaust hanger bracket. While the subsequent clean passes suggest these issues were rectified, the presence of grease on brake pipes often points to a history of surface corrosion common in older Crafters. Check the age and condition of all tyres, as the January 2023 test flagged a nearside front tyre that was nearly ten years old. This suggests a previous owner may have neglected consumable replacements. Ensure the rear seat belt buckles are fully functional, as the 2023 failure noted damage to the third and fifth row buckles.
