This 2018 Volkswagen has 5 MOT tests on record with a 100% pass rate and 17,334 miles. While there are recurring advisories for rear shock absorbers, this is a minor concern for a car of this age.

  • Most recent MOT passed — clean at last test
  • Perfect MOT record: 5 consecutive passes with no failures or dangerous defects.
  • Consistent low mileage: 17,334 miles over 8 years, indicating light use.
