This 2018 Volkswagen has 7 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 31,432 miles. While these were rectified, the recurring tyre advisories and low annual mileage warrant careful consideration.
The vehicle shows consistent, low annual mileage averaging 6,769 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, and a recent increase in usage.
Things to check
- Oct 2021: First MOT revealed a DANGEROUS Nearside Rear Inner Tyre bulge and a MAJOR Engine MIL failure.
- Jul 2022: Offside Rear Tyre advisory for cracking and Nearside Front Tyre advisory for wear.
- Jul 2024: Offside Front Tyre advisory for wear close to legal limit.
- Jul 2024: Nearside Rear Inner Tyre advisory for a bulge, indicating a recurring issue.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until July 2026, indicating current roadworthiness.
- Consistent, low annual mileage (6,769 mi/yr) suggests light use and less wear.
- All prior failures and advisories were immediately rectified and passed subsequent MOTs.
- No recurring major system failures (e.g., brakes, suspension) beyond tyre advisories.
