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

This 2007 Volkswagen has 22 MOT tests on record with a 64% pass rate and 30,528 miles. The vehicle's MOT status is currently 'Not valid' and 'SORN', making it unroadworthy and uninsurable.

The mileage trajectory shows a significant decrease from 55,646 miles (Oct 2011) to 41,210 miles (Feb 2012), indicating a possible odometer tampering or data error.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: Odometer fraud signal: Mileage decreased between Oct 2011 (55,646 mi) and Feb 2012 (41,210 mi) — possible odometer tamperin
  • Mileage decreased from 55,646 miles (Oct 2011) to 41,210 miles (Feb 2012) — potential odometer fraud.
  • 5 DANGEROUS tyre failures (Jul 2018, Sep 2021) and 2 DANGEROUS brake failures (Sep 2021) — severe safety history.
  • 5 failed MOT tests (Jul 2018, Jul 2019, Aug 2020, Sep 2021, Oct 2023) with 6 passed retests — pattern of neglect.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 8 historical failures
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) — indicates a safe underlying platform.
  • No recurring failures on the same system across multiple years — each failure was isolated.
  • Consistent retest passes after failures — owner addressed issues promptly, though frequently.
