2021 Volkswagen ABT Etransporter T32 Advance Electric · EX71 CVW

A consistent record of roadworthiness characterizes this vehicle, with the most recent test on 16 December 2025 resulting in a pass. The MOT history shows a stable progression, moving from a clean certificate in December 2024 to a pass in late 2025 that included a single advisory regarding tyre tread depth. This indicates that while the vehicle has met the minimum legal requirements for structural and mechanical safety, there is a documented trend of consumable wear beginning to manifest on the offside front tyre. The recorded mileage of 23,841 miles over approximately five years represents a relatively low annual accumulation of roughly 4,768 miles. This usage pattern suggests the vehicle has been driven significantly less than the UK average, which typically implies less frequent wear on heavy-duty components such as the drivetrain, suspension bushings, and braking systems. However, such low annual mileage can also mean the vehicle has spent extended periods stationary, which may affect the condition of rubber components and seals that are not regularly exercised under load. Given the specific advisory for the offside front tyre having 3-4mm of tread remaining, a prospective buyer should closely inspect the remaining tread depth across all four tyres to ensure they are not nearing the legal limit of 1.6mm. During a test drive, pay particular attention to the front end for any signs of uneven tyre wear, which could indicate underlying issues with wheel alignment or suspension geometry. Any pulling to one side or vibrations through the steering wheel at motorway speeds would warrant a more detailed inspection of the steering rack and front suspension linkages. Beyond the tyre advisory, the lack of recorded failures or structural advisories regarding corrosion or fluid leaks suggests the primary mechanical focus should remain on consumables. While the MOT does not confirm service intervals, the low mileage profile means it is important to verify that the vehicle has not suffered from the effects of long-term inactivity. Listen for any unusual knocks or clunks from the suspension when navigating uneven surfaces and check that the braking performance is consistent without any pedal judder or pulling under deceleration.
