An automated assessment based on available data — not a substitute for an independent inspection or professional legal/financial advice.

No registry data is available to verify ownership history, import status, or accident history for this vehicle — all information here comes only from the ad and public model-level sources.Mileage rollback risk is inconclusive: the recorded annual average (about 7,667 km/year) is well below the typical range (12,000–18,000 km/year) for this age of vehicle, with no odometer history available to confirm the trend.This model/year range has three official recall campaigns on file (Takata airbag, CNG tank corrosion, and a homologation issue for internally-used vehicles), and it is not verified whether this specific vehicle has had any of these fixes applied.As a private sale, konsumentköplagen does not apply — buyer protection depends on köplagen and the wording of your own köpekontrakt.Asking price of 65,000 SEK is very close to the median of 8 comparable Blocket listings (67,450 SEK), suggesting the price is in line with the current market.No driving ban is currently active on record for this vehicle (though this is based on limited legal-status data).

🛣️ Mileage analysis

At 138,000 km with an implied annual average of roughly 7,667 km/year, this vehicle has covered notably less distance per year than the typical range of 12,000–18,000 km/year expected for a car of this age. There is no odometer history on file to confirm a consistent mileage trend, so the rollback risk is classified as inconclusive rather than cleared — worth asking the seller for service records or old inspection (besiktning) protocols showing historical odometer readings.

💰 Market valuation

Asking 65,000 SEK — fair range 34,488–189,883 SEK (Fair price, from 8 comparables).

The asking price of 65,000 SEK is based on a comparison against 8 real comparable listings currently for sale on Blocket, which have a median price of 67,450 SEK. This places the asking price very close to the market median, within a broader fair value range of 34,488–189,883 SEK for this model. Note that one of the raw comparables listed (priced at 625 SEK) appears to be a data anomaly or placeholder and was likely excluded or had minimal weight in the median calculation.

Annual fuel cost is estimated at 12,006 SEK, but this figure assumes a standard 10,000 km/year of driving rather than this specific vehicle's own recorded mileage pattern (which appears lower, based on its odometer history). Estimated annual maintenance is 9,200 SEK, typical for a diesel van of this age. Road tax data was not available for this vehicle. Insurance is not a quote from any specific insurer but a general estimate of 3,500–7,500 SEK/year for a vehicle of this age, value, and segment in Sweden — actual premiums vary by driver profile, location, and coverage level.

Recommendation

Fairly priced, but verify recall status and mileage history before buying

The asking price is well aligned with comparable market listings, which is a positive sign. However, this is a private sale with no registry data to confirm ownership history, accident history, or import status, and the mileage trend is below the typical range without a clear explanation, making rollback risk inconclusive rather than ruled out. Additionally, three recall campaigns affect this model and year range, and it isn't confirmed whether this specific vehicle has had any required fixes applied. None of these issues are individually disqualifying, but together they warrant further verification and possibly a modest price negotiation to account for the uncertainty.

Suggested offer range: 58,000–63,000 SEK

✅ Before you buy

❓ Questions to ask the seller

  • Can you provide service records or old besiktning (inspection) protocols showing the odometer readings over time, to confirm the mileage history is genuine and not rolled back?
  • Has this vehicle had the Takata airbag propellant recall fix applied, or the CNG tank corrosion check, or the homologation check mentioned in the official recall campaigns for this model and year?
  • Was this vehicle ever used internally by Volkswagen AG before being sold, given one of the recall campaigns concerns cars in that category?
  • How many previous owners has the vehicle had, and has it ever been imported, re-registered, or taken off the road (avställd) at any point?
  • Can you share the written bill of sale (köpekontrakt) terms in advance, including any warranty or as-is clauses, since konsumentköplagen won't apply to this private sale?

🔍 Inspection checklist

  • Verify the VIN against Volkswagen's official recall lookup tool to check if the Takata airbag, CNG tank, or homologation recalls have been addressed on this specific vehicle
  • Cross-check the odometer reading against any available service stickers, old besiktning records, or maintenance invoices to assess the low annual mileage claim
  • Inspect the chassis cab bed and frame for corrosion or damage, given the vehicle's age and diesel commercial-use history
  • Check the manual gearbox and clutch for wear, common wear points on high-mileage diesel Transporters
  • Confirm the vehicle's current traffic/legal status (registered, insured, and not avställd) since legal status was not independently verified

What this report doesn't cover

  • No confirmed registration number — this is a lite report based on the ad and market data only, without ownership/mileage/legal history.
  • No community-sourced known-issues research is available for this model yet — the known-issues section is not populated.
  • Recall campaigns are matched by model and year only — whether this specific chassis has already had the fix applied is not verified.
  • No registry data was available to verify ownership history, mileage history, or import status.
  • No accident or insurance damage history source was checked for this vehicle.
  • It is not verified whether this specific vehicle has had the applicable recall campaigns fixed.
  • One comparable listing in the raw data (625 SEK) appears anomalous and may not reflect a genuine market price.
  • Insurance range is a general estimate, not a specific quote for this vehicle.
