2017 Volkswagen Transporter 2.0L Diesel · MB08 DUB

The vehicle presents a clean MOT history with the most recent test on 28 May 2025 at 144,335 miles resulting in a pass and no defects recorded. Maintenance trend is stable, with no advisories or mechanical faults flagged across the five recorded tests. The earlier failure on 16 May 2024 at 133,222 miles showed no defects recorded, and a subsequent pass on 21 May 2024 at identical mileage indicates the failure was likely procedural rather than mechanical. The Transporter is a 2017 model with 144,335 miles at the latest test, averaging roughly 16,000 miles per year. Records show consistent annual increments: 102,117 miles in May 2022, 119,672 in May 2023, 133,222 in May 2024, and 144,335 in May 2025. This reflects steady high-use commercial operation rather than sporadic short trips. No significant gaps exist between tests, each completed within a month of the prior year's date, demonstrating regular statutory testing and a sparse but clean defect record. Despite the absence of recorded defects, the high mileage and nine-year age warrant in-person checks of consumable and structural items not always captured by MOT. The buyer should examine suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc wear for fatigue, as these components endure stress on a high-mileage van. Inspect for corrosion on chassis and body mounts, particularly underneath. Verify tyres and wiper blades though not flagged. The clean record implies previous owners maintained basic compliance, but the 2024 anomalous fail without defects suggests confirming the reason with DVSA to rule out any overlooked documentation issue.
