Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the most recent MOT data. The test conducted on 13 May 2026 resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a successful result from the previous inspection on 20 June 2025, indicating that the vehicle has met all mechanical and structural requirements during the last two testing periods. The recorded mileage of 44,936 miles over a four-year period reflects an annual average of approximately 11,234 miles. This figure is consistent with typical usage for a commercial vehicle of this age and suggests regular operation. The interval between the 2025 and 2026 tests shows a consistent testing schedule, with the vehicle remaining compliant annually without significant gaps that suggest long periods of inactivity. While the MOT history shows no recurring faults or flagged advisories, a physical inspection should focus on standard wear and tear components common to the Volkswagen Crafter. A buyer should verify the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of premature fatigue, as these are under high stress in heavy-duty vans. Inspecting the brake discs and pads for uneven wear or binding calipers is also advisable, as the record does not provide data on consumable component life between test dates. Buying score: 82 Risk level: Low.

Our Verdict

A strong candidate for those seeking a relatively recent commercial vehicle. The clean MOT history and moderate mileage for its age suggest a vehicle that has not faced immediate mechanical setbacks.

When inspecting this 2.0L diesel Crafter, prioritize checking the service history to ensure the manufacturer's scheduled maintenance has been performed, as this is vital for the longevity of the TDI engine. Given its role as a CR35 (3.5-tonne) model, check for any signs of heavy load wear on the suspension and tyres.

Negotiate based on the remaining manufacturer warranty, if applicable, and verify the presence of any recent service stamps. Because the MOT history is currently clear of defects, your focus should be on verifying that the van has been used for its intended purpose without excessive idling or neglect.

As a 1968cc diesel, running costs will be dictated by payload and driving style. Fuel economy for a Crafter typically varies significantly depending on whether it is fully loaded or running empty. You should expect moderate fuel costs consistent with a large diesel van.

Tax and insurance will depend on the specific insurance group assigned to this registration, but as a 2022 model, it should benefit from more modern emissions standards. Budget for regular maintenance, including oil changes and filter replacements, which are essential for diesel commercial vehicles.

The most recent MOT from June 2025 showed no defects, which is a good starting point. However, you should manually inspect the underside for any signs of corrosion or heavy wear that may not have triggered an MOT failure yet. Pay close attention to the brake pads, discs, and tyres, as these are common wear items on heavy-duty vans.

Check the van's load area for any structural damage or heavy scuffing that might indicate rough use. Additionally, inspect the engine bay for any signs of fluid leaks around the 1968cc engine, ensuring all seals appear intact despite the lack of recorded MOT defects.

This 2022 Volkswagen Crafter CR35 Startline TDI is a modern diesel van with 33,982 miles recorded at its most recent MOT in June 2025. The vehicle shows no recorded defects from its first inspection, which is a positive indicator for a commercial vehicle of this age. Given its registration in August 2022, it has been on the road for approximately three years, maintaining a mileage profile consistent with typical commercial use.

No aggregate MOT data is currently available for the Volkswagen Crafter CR35 Startline TDI to provide a statistical reliability comparison.
