2021 MAN TGE 3.140 2.0L Diesel · OV71 CYG

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on 2 December 2025 at 135,608 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears stable following a brief failure period in the previous year. While the failure in October 2024 indicated a specific mechanical issue, the subsequent pass twenty-four hours later suggests the previous owner addressed the necessary repairs immediately to bring the vehicle back to a legal standard. At 135,608 miles over five years, this MAN TGE has operated at a high average of approximately 27,000 miles per year. This high rate of usage typically places significant stress on heavy-duty components, suspension bushings, and braking systems. The gap of 23,396 miles recorded between the October 2024 and December 2025 tests confirms consistent, heavy-commercial application. Such high mileage accelerates the wear on consumables and drivetrain components compared to average-mileage vans of this age. The failure on 15 October 2024 at 112,212 miles did not specify a defect in the provided record, but the immediate pass on the following day indicates a minor component replacement rather than a systemic structural failure. Because the most recent test showed no advisories, the buyer should still focus on a physical inspection of the chassis for corrosion and verify the condition of the suspension geometry. Given the high mileage, checking for signs of oil leaks or over-worn shock absorbers is essential, as these are common points of failure on high-mileage transit vehicles.
