2021 Volkswagen Transporter T28 Highline TDI 2.0L Diesel · DA21 FDM

The Volkswagen Transporter T28 Highline TDI presents a stable roadworthiness trend with no active defects recorded. The most recent test on 8 May 2025 at 19,898 miles returned a pass, following an initial fail on the same date with no defects logged, indicating an administrative or presentation issue rather than a mechanical fault. Prior to that, the 23 May 2024 test at 17,881 miles showed the same pattern of a fail with no defects followed by a pass. The vehicle's maintenance record is clean of advisories across all entries. Recorded mileage stands at 19,898 miles against a 2021 registration, equating to roughly 3,980 miles per year. The jump from 17,881 miles in May 2024 to 19,898 miles in May 2025 adds just 2,017 miles over twelve months. This low annual use suggests prolonged standing periods common to leisure or seasonal vans. The duplicated fail and pass entries on both test dates point to retesting on the same day, with no wear-related faults emerging between 2024 and 2025. The absence of recorded advisories on brakes, suspension bushes, coil springs, exhaust emissions, or corrosion means the MOT history alone raises no structural or mechanical red flags. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of brake disc thickness and caliper operation, given the low mileage may have allowed surface corrosion or sticking from disuse. Check underneath for structural rust on chassis members and verify tyre sidewall condition, as long standing promotes flat spots and perishing invisible to the tester. The repeated same-day fail with no defects implies the previous keeper addressed paperwork or minor presentation matters promptly rather than neglecting upkeep. Combined with the sparse, clean record, the van reads as lightly used and well presented, though physical verification of drivetrain seals and underbody integrity remains prudent before purchase.
