AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2015 Volkswagen has 11 MOT tests on record with a 82% pass rate and 6,992 miles.

The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 5,957 miles per year, with a notable spike in usage from 2022 to 2023, but no suspicious drops or inconsistencies.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Apr 2026): Front Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (1.1.13 (a) (ii))
  • DANGEROUS brake failure on 2026-04-19 indicates a critical safety issue.
  • Recurring brake advisories (2023, 2026) escalated to a DANGEROUS failure, suggesting systemic neglect.
  • Brake binding and parking brake efficiency issues (2024, 2026) point to ongoing brake system problems.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until 2027-04-18 provides immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
  • Consistent, low annual mileage (5,957 mi/yr) suggests light use and potential for longevity.
  • No recurring failures on critical safety systems like steering or suspension.
