2012 Volkswagen Transporter 2.0L Diesel · WM12 NHJ

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a remarkably stable maintenance record over the last five years. The most recent test conducted in January 2026 at 143,232 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This indicates that the previous owners have proactively maintained the vehicle and addressed potential issues before they could result in a failure. The trend remains consistently clean across the entire documented history provided. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a 14-year-old commercial, averaging approximately 10,200 miles per annum. Between September 2021 and January 2026, the vehicle covered 13,618 miles, showing a steady usage pattern without long periods of neglect or excessive strain. The intervals between MOT tests are regular, with annual increases of roughly 3,000 to 4,000 miles noted from 2022 onwards. This predictable usage suggests the vehicle has been driven regularly, which often protects the drivetrain and suspension components from the degradation associated with long stationary. While the MOT history shows no recorded mechanical faults, a physical inspection should focus on common failure points for a Transporter of this generation. The buyer should specifically examine the chassis for structural corrosion, particularly around the door arches and sills, as MOT tests only flag rust once it becomes structural. Given the mileage, checking the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers is also essential as these are high wear items that do not always trigger a failure until they show significant damage. Testing the braking system for binding calipers or worn discs will ensure the clean MOT record reflects the current mechanical state of the vehicle.
