AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2013 Volkswagen has 14 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 23,800 miles. While many issues were addressed, the high mileage and repeated wear on these components suggest significant upcoming maintenance costs.
The vehicle shows high annual usage, averaging 13,023 miles per year, with a notable drop in recent years (Oct 2024: 161,209 mi, Aug 2025: 164,700 mi).
Things to check
- Recurring tyre failures (Aug 2018, Aug 2019, Aug 2022) and advisories (Aug 2025) indicate chronic wear.
- Recurring brake disc and pad advisories (Aug 2018, Aug 2022) and failures (Aug 2022) suggest ongoing maintenance needs.
- Recurring suspension arm advisories (Aug 2025) and failures (Aug 2023) point to a history of wear.
- Mileage dropped significantly from 2019 to 2024 (from ~17k to ~3k annual miles).
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
- Most recent MOT passed despite 4 historical failures
- Valid MOT until 2026-08-21, providing immediate peace of mind.
- Consistent mileage trajectory, despite high annual usage, shows no signs of tampering.
