2021 Volkswagen Crafter CR35 Startline TDI 2.0L Diesel · FN71 OPJ

The maintenance trend for this Volkswagen Crafter remains stable, culminating in a clean pass on 22 December 2025 at 100,777 miles with zero defects recorded. The vehicle presents a solid mechanical baseline at its current mileage. Prior to this, a test on 15 November 2024 at 75,849 miles resulted in a failure, though the record indicates no specific defects were documented. A retest just five days later on 20 November 2024 at 75,856 miles passed without issue, suggesting the initial failure was either an administrative anomaly or a minor rectification that escaped detailed logging. The van has accumulated 100,777 miles over five years, averaging roughly 20,155 miles annually. This is high for its age and points to sustained commercial or long-distance use rather than light urban duties. The mileage jumped from 75,856 miles in November 2024 to 100,777 miles by December 2025, representing a significant accumulation of 24,921 miles in just over twelve months. Such intensive driving accelerates the wear rate on drivetrain components, suspension bushes, and braking systems. Despite the clean MOT record, the high annual mileage demands a thorough physical inspection. A buyer should closely examine the condition of the brake discs and pads, as frequent heavy stopping in a commercial van of this weight rapidly degrades these consumables. Suspension components, particularly the coil springs and trailing arm bushes, require careful scrutiny for cracking or wear, given the relentless mileage. Structurally, inspect the chassis and load-bearing areas for corrosion or stress fractures, as high-utilization vehicles often suffer from premature rust or metal fatigue that an MOT might not immediately flag.
