Our Verdict
Proceed with confidence if you can verify the service history. This silver 2010 Transporter shows a consistent pattern of passing its MOT tests with no recorded defects in recent years.
While the MOT history shows no recorded defects upon passing, you should request a full service history to complement the MOT records. For a 1.9L diesel engine of this era, check for evidence of regular oil changes and timing belt intervals.
When viewing this specific silver Transporter, check for any signs of heavy commercial use that might not be reflected in the MOT results, such as interior wear or heavy load damage to the floor. Since the MOT failures in 2024 and 2025 recorded no specific defects, it is worth asking the seller what required attention to rectify the vehicle for the subsequent pass.
Running costs for this 1968cc diesel Transporter will be influenced by its commercial classification. You should expect moderate fuel economy typical of a diesel van, though actual figures will depend heavily on load and driving style.
Insurance groups for these models can vary significantly based on usage (private vs. commercial), so obtain a quote using the registration WJ60YPC. Maintenance costs for Volkswagen components are generally higher than for budget brands, but the longevity of the 2.0L engine can offset this over time.
Focus your inspection on the mechanical components that the MOT covers. Although no specific defects were listed in the recent failures, pay close attention to the suspension, braking system, and tyre condition, as these are common areas for MOT advisories in vans.
Check the underside of the vehicle for any signs of corrosion or leaks. Given the 2010 registration, ensure that any work related to the diesel exhaust system or emissions control has been maintained, as these are critical for modern MOT standards.
This 2010 Volkswagen Transporter (WJ60YPC) has covered 74,640 miles as of its last MOT in September 2025. The MOT history shows a series of passes in 2023, 2024, and 2025, despite recorded failures on the test days themselves. The mileage appears relatively low for a diesel commercial vehicle of this age.
No aggregate reliability data is available for this specific Volkswagen Transporter model to provide a statistical comparison.
