2020 MAN TGE 3.140 2.0L Diesel · DA20 YDO

This vehicle presents a stable and exemplary roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 30 April 2025 at 72,852 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes in May 2023 and April 2024, suggesting a high standard of preventative maintenance and a vehicle that has been kept in peak mechanical condition. The mileage is high for a six-year-old vehicle, averaging over 12,000 miles per year. The accumulation has accelerated recently, with 11,289 miles added between April 2024 and April 2025, compared to 14,854 miles added over the preceding year. Such high usage typically increases the wear on drivetrain components and suspension, yet the absence of any MOT advisories over three years indicates the previous owner addressed wear and tear before it became a legal failure. A physical inspection should focus on high-wear consumables that do not always trigger an MOT failure until they reach a critical limit. Given the 72,852 miles, check the depth of the tyre treads and the thickness of the brake discs and pads. Inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of fatigue or cracking, as these components endure significant stress in high-mileage commercial vehicles. Check for any signs of surface corrosion on the chassis and underbody. While the MOT record is clean, a manual check of the oil condition and service intervals is recommended to ensure the engine has been supported by regular fluid changes to match its high annual mileage.
