2021 Volkswagen Transporter T32 Highline TDI 2.0L Diesel · ML21 FOR

A consistent record of roadworthiness is evident from the available data, although the most recent test on 4 July 2025 shifted from a clean bill of health to one containing multiple tyre advisories. The vehicle passed its 2024 inspection without any defects, but the emergence of wear issues across three tyres in the latest report indicates a current requirement for replacement to ensure continued legal compliance. The recorded mileage of 24,998 miles over five years represents a low annual average of approximately 5,000 miles. For a vehicle of this type, such usage is atypical and suggests it has not been subjected to the heavy load cycles or high-intensity urban stop-start traffic common to many commercial vans. This level of use generally results in reduced mechanical fatigue on the engine and transmission. Specific attention must be paid to the tyre condition and wheel geometry, as the July 2025 advisories noted the offside front, nearside rear, and offside rear tyres were worn close to the legal limit and exhibited edge wear. This specific type of wear often points to misalignment or incorrect camber and toe settings. During a test drive, the buyer should monitor for any steering drift or unusual vibration through the steering wheel to determine if a professional four-wheel alignment is necessary. Beyond the tyre issues, the lack of recorded failures or advisories regarding suspension bushes, brake lines, or structural corrosion is a positive indicator of the vehicle's current state. The buyer should verify that the flagged tyres have been replaced since the last test and perform a visual check of the brake discs for any surface pitting that can occur when a vehicle is used infrequently.
