2010 Volkswagen Crafter 50 Blue TDI 136 L Heavy oil · MX60 AFY

The Volkswagen Crafter currently holds a roadworthy status following the pass recorded on 25 February 2026 at 607,769 miles. Maintenance trend reads stable across the available DVSA history, with every annual test from February 2023 through February 2026 logging no defects or advisories. An anomalous failure on 24 February 2026 at 607,751 miles shows no defects recorded, yet the subsequent pass one day later suggests either a procedural anomaly or an undocumented rectification. Mileage accumulation relative to the 2010 build date reveals uneven use. The test on 18 February 2023 captured 321,045 miles, rising to 344,640 by 14 February 2024, a modest 23,595-mile increment. A sharp surge followed: by 20 February 2025 the odometer read 578,025 miles, adding 233,385 miles in twelve months, before settling to 607,769 by February 2026 with only 29,744 further miles. That mid-life high-distance spell implies intensive commercial operation, likely by a fleet or courier owner, though the clean test outcomes indicate routine statutory checks were not neglected. Despite the absence of flagged faults, a buyer must physically inspect critical wear components given the 607,769-mile total. Examine front and rear suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers for fatigue. Check brake discs and calipers for binding or excessive wear, and assess structural integrity of the chassis and sills for corrosion. The TDI drivetrain at this mileage may exhibit turbo or clutch degradation not captured by MOT emissions tests. The unexplained fail with no defects warrants scrutiny of the V5C and DVSA failure reason before purchase. Verify service records to corroborate the 2024-2025 mileage spike and confirm no odometer inconsistency. Given the sparse but clean history, a pre-purchase inspection by a marque specialist remains prudent.
