2007 Volkswagen Crafter 2.5L Diesel · WF57 AEJ

The vehicle currently holds a clean roadworthiness status, with the most recent MOT pass on 2 August 2025 at 155,586 miles recording no defects. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the vehicle has passed its last three tests without any flagged advisories or failures. This suggests a level of consistent upkeep, though the lack of recorded advisories on an older commercial vehicle is uncommon. The mileage pattern is typical for a 19-year-old van, averaging roughly 8,189 miles per year. There is a significant data gap between October 2015 at 124,771 miles and July 2024 at 141,113 miles. This seven-year interval indicates either a period of very low usage or a lack of recorded MOT history during that window. The mileage increased by 14,473 miles over those seven years, confirming the vehicle spent considerable time stationary or in light use. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on structural integrity and chassis corrosion. The MOT record is remarkably sparse for a 2007 Crafter, and the absence of any mentioned suspension bushes, brake disc wear, or exhaust leaks over nearly two decades is unusual. You must check for underside rust and the condition of the coil springs, as these are common failure points for this model that may not have been captured in the limited testing history. Verify the service history to ensure oil changes and timing belt replacements occurred during the long gap between 2015 and 2024. While the August 2025 test was clean, the sudden increase of 14,473 miles between July 2024 and August 2025 suggests a recent change in usage patterns. Inspect the tyres and brake pads for wear consistent with this recent spike in mileage.
