This 2013 Volkswagen has 12 MOT tests on record with a 83% pass rate and 31,495 miles. While these were addressed, the repeated nature of these faults suggests potential underlying wear and tear.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 10,258 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes, though a 2019 service gap is noted.
Things to check
- Recurring tyre failures (Jan 2020 advisory, Feb 2021 dangerous defect) indicate a history of poor maintenance.
- Offside Rear Tyre worn close to legal limit (Jan 2020) and Nearside Rear Road wheel distorted (Dec 2016) point to prior neglect.
- Offside Front Headlamp not working (Aug 2021) and Offside Front Anti-roll bar linkage play (Jan 2020) show a pattern of component wear.
- The 2019 MOT gap suggests a period of unrecorded use or potential neglect.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
- Valid MOT until September 2026, offering peace of mind for the next two years.
- Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes, indicating genuine usage.
- No major structural failures or recurring dangerous defects, suggesting general roadworthiness.
