2022 Volkswagen Crafter CR35 Startline TDI 2.0L Diesel · EX22 FXB

The vehicle currently holds a clean roadworthiness status following its most recent MOT test on 16 February 2026. At 82,518 miles, the Crafter passed with zero defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend where the vehicle meets the minimum safety and environmental requirements. The absence of any advisories or failures in the latest report suggests that the previous owner has addressed potential mechanical issues prior to the test date. The mileage profile is notably high for a four-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 20,630 miles per year. This rate of use suggests consistent commercial or long-distance motorway application, which typically accelerates the wear on components compared to average private use. While the MOT record remains clean, the rapid accumulation of miles implies that the drivetrain, suspension, and braking systems have undergone significantly more stress than a typical vehicle of this age. A physical inspection should focus on the components most susceptible to high-mileage fatigue. Examine the front suspension geometry, specifically the control arms, bushes, and coil springs, for signs of premature tearing or sagging common under heavy loads. The braking system requires a check for uneven pad wear or thinning of discs, given the high mileage. Additionally, inspect the chassis and exhaust system for any localized corrosion that may have developed between test cycles, despite the recent pass.
