2021 Volkswagen Crafter CR35 Trendline TDI 2.0L Diesel · RE21 DVR

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend indicates a shift toward reactive rather than preventative care. The most recent test on June 9, 2026 at 125,635 miles resulted in a pass despite defects related to tyre condition. The tester flagged the offside rear tyre for cracking and perishing and the nearside rear tyre for being near the legal limit and containing a nail. These findings suggest that while the vehicle meets minimum standards, basic consumable upkeep is being neglected between service intervals. The mileage profile is significantly high for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging over 25,000 miles per year. Between the June 2024 test at 78,899 miles and the June 2025 test at 103,297 miles, the vehicle covered 24,398 miles in just twelve months. This rapid accumulation confirms heavy commercial use, which accelerates wear on the drivetrain, suspension components, and braking system. The jump of 22,338 miles recorded between June 2025 and June 2026 tests maintains this consistent high-intensity operational pattern. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension and braking assembly, as the high mileage has likely stressed the bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers. The recent failure for perished and worn tyres indicates that the owner may only be replacing components when they reach an MOT failure point. Given the previous failure for an ineffective wiper and a damaged windscreen, the glass and wiper blade assembly should be checked for stress cracks or poor repairs. Priority should also be given to the chassis for structural corrosion, which is common on high-mileage Crafters exposed to the elements..
