2020 Volkswagen Crafter CR35 Trendline TDI 2.0L Diesel · GL20 AAE

The Volkswagen Crafter shows a fully roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend across its recorded MOT history. In the 10 June 2025 test at 52,937 miles, the examiner passed the vehicle with no defects or advisories; that examination now sits thirteen months before the current July 2026 review date, so a fresh certificate will be required within weeks. Prior examinations on 13 June 2024 at 49,393 miles and 11 July 2023 at 34,850 miles also returned clean passes. This uninterrupted sequence signals consistent statutory compliance and no escalating mechanical concerns. Mileage accumulation reflects lighter-than-average commercial duty for a six-year-old van. The odometer read 34,850 miles at the inaugural July 2023 test, rose sharply to 49,393 miles by June 2024, then climbed only 3,544 miles to the June 2025 recording. That late taper implies the previous operator reduced utilisation or parked the vehicle for extended spells during its fourth year. The three-test dataset is thin but free of gaps or failure flags. A buyer should still arrange a workshop inspection of structural and consumable elements despite the absent MOT faults. The DVSA records flag no corrosion, worn suspension bushes, binding calipers, or exhaust issues, yet a 2020 CR35 chassis demands scrutiny of subframe rust, front coil springs, and brake disc thickness under load. The clean pass history suggests the former keeper addressed statutory requirements punctually, but it does not confirm proactive replacement of tyres, wiper blades, or drivetrain fluids. Examine the vehicle on a lift to verify underbody integrity and measure remaining tyre tread before purchase.
