2021 Volkswagen Transporter T28 Startline TDI 2.0L Diesel · LP21 YXC

The vehicle currently holds a clean roadworthiness status following a successful MOT test on 12 December 2025 at 86,405 miles. This result followed an unexplained failure just one week prior at 86,296 miles, though the record indicates no recorded defects for that failure, suggesting either an administrative error or a minor issue that was rectified immediately without documentation. Despite this anomaly, the overall maintenance trend remains stable as the vehicle has consistently passed without recorded advisories across the last three successful inspections. At 86,405 miles over five years, this Transporter has averaged approximately 17,000 miles per annum, which sits above the national annual average. The data shows a significant surge in usage between November 2024 and December 2025, where the vehicle covered over 6,500 miles in just thirteen months. This high rate of accumulation suggests consistent commercial or long-distance motorway use, which typically places accelerated stress on the drivetrain, suspension components, and heavy-duty braking systems compared to low-mileage city vehicles of the same age. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension geometry and wish arm bushes, as high annual mileage often accelerates the degradation of rubber components in heavy vans. Given the mileage profile, checking the brake discs for uneven wear and the calipers for binding is standard practice for frequently-used commercial vehicles. While the MOT history shows no recurring structural corrosion, the lack of recorded advisories warrants a close look at the underbody and mounting points to ensure that the high usage has not led to undetected mechanical fatigue or fluid leaks.
