2009 Volkswagen Transporter 2.5L Diesel · WR59 ENT

The vehicle's overall roadworthiness is currently unsatisfactory, as evidenced by two consecutive MOT failures in the May and April 2026 testing. The most recent test on 2026-05-21 at 171,040 miles was passed, but the immediate failure on 2026-05-14 at 171,037 miles indicates a critical mechanical failure that has not been corrected, suggesting a persistent pattern of neglect. The mileage profile reveals a significant gap in record-keeping, with the last MOT on 2024-04-19 at 161,187 miles, a substantial period of inactivity between the two most recent tests. This lack of a third MOT test suggests that the owner has likely been absent for over two years, which is a critical indicator that the vehicle's condition has deteriorated substantially over such a long interval without any official assessment of its state. A buyer must inspect the vehicle in person to verify the integrity of the steering rack mountings, the brake binding of the nearside rear, and the wear of the front outer drive shaft joint, as these specific faults were flagged in the 2026-05-14 and 2024-04-12 tests respectively. Given the repeated failures, structural risks such as corrosion or suspension bushings are highly probable, and the vehicle requires immediate professional diagnosis to determine if it meets current safety standards.
