AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2009 Volkswagen has 16 MOT tests on record with a 88% pass rate and 25,195 miles. The recent June 2025 MOT also carries a tyre advisory, indicating immediate maintenance needs.

The vehicle shows very low annual mileage averaging 4,760 miles per year, with a significant drop in usage from 2019 to 2021 (2,718 miles in 12 months).

Things to check

  • Recurring tyre failures and advisories across multiple MOT tests (2012, 2023, 2025).
  • Offside Rear Inner Position lamp not working (Jun 2023) and Stop lamp(s) not working (Jun 2023) — electrical issues.
  • Nearside Front Tyre has a cut in excess of requirements (Jun 2025) — safety-critical wear.
  • Nail in nearside rear tyre (Apr 2012) — early wear pattern.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until June 2026, offering immediate peace of mind.
  • Consistent low mileage (4,760 mi/yr) suggests light use and potential longevity.
  • No major structural or engine failures recorded in the MOT history.
