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 23 MOT tests on record with a 70% pass rate and 8,789 miles. The vehicle's low mileage for its age, combined with a 4-year gap in MOT records and a 19-year-old vehicle, presents significant unquantifiable risks.
The vehicle shows a significant drop in annual mileage from 2019 (92,616 mi) to 2020 (97,943 mi), followed by extremely low usage (e.g., 2,586 miles in 2021), indicating inconsistent and potentially fraudulent usage patterns.
Things to check
- AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Sep 2025): Offside Front Inner Tyre has ply or cords exposed (5.2.3 (d) (ii))
- 6 DANGEROUS tyre defects recorded across 13 MOT tests (May 2019, Sep 2022) — persistent and severe.
- 4-year MOT gap (2013–2017) — no records for 4 years on a 19-year-old vehicle.
- Consistent low annual mileage (e.g., 2,586 miles in 2021) — raises odometer fraud concerns.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until September 2026 — current roadworthiness certification.
- No recorded major structural corrosion or chassis failures — primary safety systems appear intact.
- Consistent, albeit low, annual mileage (6,896 miles/year) — no sudden spikes or drops.
- No recurring brake system failures — critical safety components appear well-maintained.
