2005 Volkswagen 2.5 TDI Dual Cab Tipper Ute - 357,007 Hours - Alloy Tipper Tray & Toolbox
Overview
This 2008 Volkswagen Transporter represents a workhorse utility vehicle built for demanding trade and commercial applications. The 2.5-litre turbocharged five-cylinder diesel engine delivers robust torque and fuel efficiency characteristics that have made this generation popular across Australian construction, landscaping, and service sectors. With dual cab seating and a professionally fitted alloy tipper tray, this unit combines practical payload capacity with genuine multi-occupant capability, making it suitable for small to medium contracting operations, council maintenance work, or fleet-based service delivery.
The vehicle presents in honest working condition consistent with 357,007 kilometres of active service. The white exterior shows typical weathering and minor surface oxidation, whilst the alloy tipper tray exhibits moderate wear with surface patina and minor denting from operational use. The dual cab interior retains functional seating for five occupants with grey fabric trim showing expected wear patterns. The turbocharged diesel engine bay is clean and serviceable, with all major components accessible and in working order. The integrated toolbox with multiple drawers provides secure storage for trade tools and equipment, whilst the roof rack offers additional load-carrying flexibility. Tyres are fitted and serviceable, and the vehicle maintains full operational lighting and safety systems.
In the current market for used trade vehicles, comparable 2005-2010 Volkswagen Transporter dual cabs with tipper trays and similar hours typically range between AUD 12,000 and 18,000 depending on service history and specific configuration. This example represents solid value for buyers seeking a proven, fuel-efficient diesel workhorse with genuine dual-occupancy capability and integrated tipping functionality at the entry-to-mid-range of the market.
