2002 Volkswagen Multivan 2.5L Diesel · CP02 WUG

The 2025‑09‑10 MOT passed with zero defects, confirming that the Volkswagen Multivan remains roadworthy and that the maintenance trend has stabilized after the 2024‑09‑05 failure, which recorded no defects despite the FAIL outcome. The mileage has risen from 218,594 miles in August 2022 to 224,790 miles by September 2025, an increase of 6,196 miles or roughly 2,065 miles per year, well below the typical 9,366 miles per year for a 24‑year‑old vehicle; the only notable irregularity is the 13‑month gap between the August 2023 and September 2024 tests, while the remaining annual intervals are consistent. A buyer should inspect the suspension bushes, coil springs and any play in the steering or suspension, as these components often develop wear gradually even when MOTs show no defects; brake discs and calipers should be examined for binding or uneven wear, and tyre tread depth should be verified, given the vehicle’s high mileage. Finally, although no structural rust was recorded, the age and mileage merit a close visual check of chassis rails, wheel arches and the underbody for corrosion, and the exhaust system should be assessed for compliance with emission standards and overall condition.
