Our Verdict
This is a relatively fresh example of a
When viewing this vehicle, check the remaining tread depth on all tyres, particularly the nearside front which was flagged for being worn close to the legal limit in January 2026. Ensure that any replacement tyres are of a reputable brand and that the wheel alignment has been checked, as uneven wear can indicate suspension issues.
As this is a 2022 model, you should verify if the manufacturer's warranty is still active and request evidence of any scheduled servicing. For a diesel engine of this type, confirm that the service intervals have been strictly adhered to, as this is vital for long-term engine health.
As a 1968cc diesel engine, the Transporter is designed for efficiency, though actual fuel economy will depend heavily on load and driving style. Being Euro 6 compliant, it should be able to operate in most UK Ultra Low Emission Zones (ULEZ) without daily charges.
Tax and insurance groups for the Highline trim tend to be mid-range for commercial vehicles. You should budget for regular maintenance costs associated with diesel engines, including oil changes and filter replacements. An estimated annual running cost is provided below.
Focus your inspection on the tyres and suspension components. The MOT record from January 2026 specifically identified the nearside front tyre as being worn close to the legal limit and worn on the edge; this warrants a close look at the suspension geometry or tracking.
Beyond the MOT results, inspect the van's load area and interior for signs of heavy commercial use. Check the service book to see if the 2022 registration date aligns with the first service, and ensure the diesel particulate filter (DPF) has been maintained through regular driving cycles.
Registered in January 2022, this blue diesel Transporter has covered 14,294 miles as of its latest MOT in January 2026. The vehicle has a short MOT history consisting of two tests, with the most recent pass showing a minor tyre wear advisory. Given its age and mileage, it represents a modern Euro 6 compliant van that has seen moderate use.
