2009 Volkswagen Crafter 2.5L Diesel · DX59 HTT

The vehicle is currently roadworthy and demonstrates a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 20 April 2026 at 111,244 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the vehicle failed its tests on 18 April 2026 and 6 March 2024, the records show no specific defects for these failures, which typically suggests minor administrative issues or rapid rectification of simple faults. The mileage is consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging roughly 6,544 miles per year. There is a steady accumulation of distance, with 10,986 miles added between the April 2024 and April 2026 tests. This regular usage pattern reduces the likelihood of seals perishing or batteries failing due to prolonged standing, which is a common risk for older commercial vehicles. The absence of recorded advisories over the last three years is unusual for a 2009 model. A buyer should specifically inspect the chassis and underbody for corrosion, as the MOT record does not flag structural rust, but these areas often degrade on older Crafters without being noted if the tester is not thorough. Check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs during a physical inspection. Given the lack of reported wear on brake discs or tyres in the official history, it is necessary to verify if these consumables have been replaced recently or if they are nearing the end of their service life.
