This 2009 Volkswagen has 17 MOT tests on record with a 82% pass rate and 23,456 miles. However, a clear pattern of recurring brake advisories and a DANGEROUS tyre defect in the most recent test require immediate attention.
Mileage is consistent with normal usage, averaging 6,888 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or round numbers.
Things to check
- AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Dec 2025): Offside Front Tyre has ply or cords exposed (5.2.3 (d) (ii))
- DANGEROUS tyre defect recorded on 2025-12-06 (Offside Front Tyre has ply or cords exposed).
- Recurring brake advisories across 3 tests (Sep 2018, Oct 2020, Dec 2025) indicate chronic wear.
- Recurring registration plate lamp advisories (Dec 2023, Dec 2025) escalated to a major failure in 2025.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
- Valid MOT until 2026-12-06, providing immediate peace of mind.
- Consistent, normal mileage trajectory with no suspicious anomalies.
- No major structural failures or recurring dangerous defects recorded.
