This 2007 Volkswagen has 21 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 40,308 miles. The vehicle's mileage has also been inconsistent, with a significant drop in recent years.
The mileage trajectory shows a significant drop from 18,655 miles/year (Dec 2023) to just 183 miles/year (Nov 2024), indicating a change in usage or potential data anomalies.
Things to check
- Recurring major failures on suspension (4 tests), emissions (3 tests), and brakes (3 tests) across 2011–2024 MOTs.
- Consistent advisories for exhaust, registration plate lamp, and subframe corrosion since 2011–2024 MOTs.
- Unusually low mileage of 183 miles in the last year (Nov 2024) after 18,655 miles/year in 2023.
- Three MOT failures with no defect details provided, suggesting unresolved issues or poor record-keeping.
Working in its favour
- Recent clean MOT pass on 2024-11-26, indicating current roadworthiness.
- Consistent, high initial mileage (14,052 miles/year) suggests regular use in early life.
- No evidence of odometer fraud; mileage anomalies are consistent with the vehicle's history.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a well-regarded safety record for its model.
