This 2010 Volkswagen has 18 MOT tests on record with a 78% pass rate and 48,366 miles. While mileage is consistent, the extensive history of component wear suggests significant upcoming maintenance costs.
The vehicle shows consistent, low annual mileage averaging 7,812 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating normal usage over its 16-year lifespan.
Things to check
- Recurring suspension failures and advisories (e.g., anti-roll bar link, shock absorbers) across multiple tests.
- Persistent brake system issues (e.g., hose leaks, worn pads) throughout its MOT history.
- Multiple tyre failures and advisories (e.g., cuts, worn close to limit) in 2019, 2023, and 2024.
- Recent major failure for steering (Mar 2024) and suspension (Mar 2024) with immediate retests.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until March 2027, indicating current roadworthiness.
- Consistent, low annual mileage (7,812 mi/yr) suggests light use and less wear.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies.
- No outstanding MOT failures or advisories as of the most recent test (Mar 2026).
