2014 Volkswagen Transporter 2.0L Diesel · SY64 MTF

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of passing tests. The most recent inspection conducted in October 2025 at 96,569 miles resulted in no defects, indicating that the van currently meets all safety and environmental standards. While a failure was recorded in late September 2024 at 89,689 miles, the immediate pass just one day later suggests the owner was proactive in rectifying identified faults to maintain compliance. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a twelve-year-old Transporter, averaging approximately 8,000 miles per annum. Between September 2022 and October 2025, the vehicle covered 21,092 miles, showing a steady rate of use rather than long periods of stagnation or neglect. This moderate usage generally reduces the risk of premature failure in drivetrain components or heavy suspension wear compared to high-mileage commercial vans. The lack of significant gaps between annual testing intervals suggests the vehicle has remained in regular working order without being subjected to extreme mechanical stress. Given the clean nature of the last two MOT results, an in-person inspection should focus on common wear points for this model that are not always captured by the tester. A buyer should examine the chassis for developing structural corrosion, particularly along the sills and wheel arches, where rust often initiates over a decade. Verify the age and condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking, as low mileage can still lead to rubber degradation over time. Checking the brake discs for deep scoring or uneven wear will also confirm if the mechanical health reflected in the MOT records translates to good operational performance.
