This 2015 Volkswagen has 14 MOT tests on record with a 64% pass rate and 12,547 miles. While the mileage is low, the vehicle's maintenance history raises significant concerns.
The vehicle shows suspiciously low mileage before Oct 2018 (232 mi/yr equivalent), followed by normal usage averaging 6,480 miles/year, which is a significant red flag for potential odometer fraud.
Things to check

- DANGEROUS defect: Tyres (Oct 2019 advisory) escalated to DANGEROUS (Oct 2024 failure).
