2012 Volkswagen Transporter 2.0L Diesel · YN12 ANV

This vehicle presents an exceptionally clean MOT history with a stable roadworthiness trend. The most recent test on 23 June 2025 at 47,804 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to June 2022, indicating a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard or has seen very light duty. The mileage is remarkably low for a 2012 model, averaging roughly 3,415 miles per year. Between the June 2022 test at 36,378 miles and the June 2025 test at 47,804 miles, the vehicle covered only 11,426 miles over three years. This low usage suggests the van has not been subjected to the typical heavy-duty cycles associated with Transporters, though such low mileage can sometimes indicate periods of prolonged standing. While the DVSA records show no mechanical failures, a buyer should still perform a physical inspection of the chassis and underbody. Low-mileage vehicles often suffer from perished rubber components or surface corrosion if they have sat idle in damp conditions. Check the condition of the suspension bushes and the brake discs for pitting or surface rust, as these components can degrade through age even when mileage is low. Verify the service history to ensure the engine oil and cambelt have been changed according to time intervals rather than just mileage. The absence of any advisories regarding brake wear or tyre tread over the last four years suggests a disciplined approach to maintenance, but a manual check of the tyre date codes is advised to ensure the rubber has not hardened over time.
