2021 Volkswagen Crafter CR35 Trendline TDI 2.0L Diesel · CP71 FFN

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend that suggests reactive rather than preventative care. The most recent test on 29 December 2025 at 19,753 miles passed, though it introduced advisories for both nearside and offside rear tyres being worn close to the legal limit and showing edge wear. This indicates a shift from the 2024 test where the vehicle passed without defects following a minor failure for a in horn. The mileage profile is notably low for a five-year-old commercial vehicle, averaging approximately 4,000 miles per year. Data shows a significant period of activity between November 2024 and December 2025, where the vehicle covered over 6,000 miles in just thirteen months. While low annual mileage generally reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine components, the long intervals between tests can sometimes lead to flat-spotting on tyres or degradation of rubber-based suspension bushes and fluid-related brake-related components if the vehicle has sat stationary for extended periods. A buyer should inspect the rear alignment in person, as the edge wear noted in the December 2025 advisory often indicates tracking issues or worn suspension components. Given the low mileage, it is also essential to check for corrosion on the brake discs and calipers, which can occur on vehicles that are not used frequently. The previous failure of the horn in 2024 was a simple electrical fault, but a thorough check of all auxiliary electronics is advisable to ensure no other minor issues have been overlooked.
