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 15 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 19,789 miles. The consistent low mileage for its age, combined with a 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating, cannot outweigh the severe and recurring defects.

The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 7,267 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but this is heavily outweighed by the dangerous and recurring MOT failures.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Dec 2024): Offside Front Tyre has ply or cords exposed (5.2.3 (d) (ii))
  • DANGEROUS tyre failures on 2018-12-04 and 2016-11-22 indicate severe neglect.
  • Recurring brake/suspension advisories across 5+ tests (e.g., Dec 2021, Dec 2023) point to systemic wear.
  • The 2016-11-22 test shows multiple dangerous defects and advisories, a clear 'just passed MOT' tactic.

Working in its favour

  • The vehicle has a valid MOT until 2026-12-09, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • Consistent, low annual mileage (7,267 mi/yr) suggests light use and less wear.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) confirms high safety standards for its model year.
  • No major structural corrosion or brake system failures are noted in the MOT history.
