2015 Volkswagen Crafter 2.0L Diesel · SO10 AFG

The Volkswagen Crafter passed its most recent MOT on 18 February 2026 at 309,578 miles with no defects recorded, and the maintenance trend across the supplied history reads as stable. The February 2026 pass follows a clean pass on 21 February 2025 at 280,599 miles, after a failed attempt on 20 February 2025 at 280,583 miles that listed no defects, a pattern suggesting an administrative or presentation issue at the test centre rather than a mechanical fault. Prior passes on 22 February 2024 at 251,140 miles and 16 February 2023 at 217,654 miles also carried no advisories, so the official record shows no worsening condition over the last three years. The mileage stands at 309,578 against an 11-year life, averaging roughly 28,143 miles per year, which is high for a 2015 van and points to sustained commercial use. The odometer climbed from 217,654 in February 2023 to 251,140 in February 2024, then to 280,599 by February 2025, and reached 309,578 by February 2026, a steady annual accumulation near 29,000 miles with no standing gaps. Such load cycles typically fatigue suspension bushes, driveshaft joints, and clutch components well ahead of lighter-use vehicles, even where the MOT shows a clean sheet. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion, as the DVSA tests recorded no advisories but high-mileage Crafters commonly develop chassis rust around spring hangers and sills unseen in a pass result. The brake discs, calipers, and rear suspension coil springs warrant measured checks for wear and binding, given the mileage and the absence of any recorded measurement in the history. The clean record implies previous operators kept the van test-compliant, yet the 2025 same-day fail and pass with zero defects hints at loose test documentation rather than proof of thorough upkeep.
