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 9 MOT tests on record with a 78% pass rate and 25,126 miles. While it's a 19-year-old vehicle, its recent clean passes and low annual usage make it a viable purchase.

The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 7,063 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating normal usage.

Things to check

  • Nearside Front Suspension arm rubber bush deteriorated (Jun 2012) — a single past failure.
  • MOT expired 2017-10-21; current MOT status is 'Not valid' — requires immediate re-MOT.
  • Untaxed status as of analysis — verify current tax compliance with DVLA.
  • 19-year-old vehicle with accumulated wear expected; verify all fluid levels.

Working in its favour

  • Clean recent MOT history with no failures since 2012, showing responsible ownership.
  • Consistently low annual mileage (7,063 mi/yr) suggests light use and less wear.
  • Single past failure (Jun 2012) was immediately rectified, demonstrating prompt maintenance.
  • Euro NCAP 5-star safety rating (2017) indicates a well-regarded safety standard.
