2013 Volkswagen Crafter 2.0L Diesel · DA13 ACU

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean MOT history. The most recent test on 11 December 2025 at 199,975 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to December 2022, suggesting a high standard of preventative maintenance. The mileage is high for a 2013 model, averaging over 15,000 miles per year. The accumulation has remained steady, with 15,144 miles added between December 2023 and December 2024, and a further 15,946 miles added by the December 2025 test. A brief failure on 28 November 2024 at 184,021 miles was resolved within two weeks, though the record provides no specific defect details for that failure. Despite the lack of recorded faults, the high mileage puts significant stress on the drivetrain and chassis. A buyer should physically inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for fatigue, as these components typically degrade at this mileage regardless of MOT outcomes. The absence of corrosion advisories is positive, but the underbody and sills require a manual check for surface rust common to this age of Crafter. Check the brake discs and pads for wear and ensure there is no binding in the calipers. Given the high annual usage, verify the service history for timing belt and water pump replacements to ensure the engine's long-term reliability. The record implies a well-maintained vehicle, but the physical wear on consumables will be the primary concern.
