2016 Volkswagen Crafter 2.0L Diesel · GL66 DFU

The vehicle presents a currently roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend following a period of inconsistency. The most recent MOT test on 17 August 2024 at 160,075 miles passed with no recorded defects, indicating that the owner successfully addressed previous issues identified in earlier tests. While the history shows failures in 2022 and 2023, the clean sheet from the latest inspection suggests the vehicle is currently being maintained to a functional operational standard. The mileage profile reflects heavy commercial usage consistent with a ten-year-old van, averaging approximately 16,000 miles per annum. A significant period of activity occurred between April 2022 and August 2024, where the vehicle covered over 56,000 miles in just 26 months. This rapid accumulation places considerable stress on heavy-duty components like the drivetrain and suspension systems. The gap between the August 2024 test and the current date of June 2026 means the vehicle has operated for nearly two years since its last official roadworthiness check. A buyer must focus their physical inspection on the suspension assembly and structural integrity, given the high-mileage nature of the Crafter. The failures in April 2022 and June 2023 suggest the vehicle was prone to mechanical issues that required immediate rectification during those periods. Inspect the coil springs for signs of sagging or fractures and check the chassis for corrosion corrosion, as these are common points of failure on vehicles of this age. Because the last MOT was nearly two years ago, the condition of the brake pads, discs, and tyre tread is critical to ensure that no significant wear has occurred since the last recorded audit.
