AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2013 Volkswagen has 13 MOT tests on record with a 77% pass rate and 15,166 miles. However, a significant mileage discrepancy in 2018 and recurring advisories for critical safety components like tyres and brakes warrant careful consideration.
A critical mileage anomaly occurred on 2018-09-17, where the vehicle recorded 25,460 miles but then 25,406 miles on the same day, indicating a possible odometer fraud.
Things to check
- Mileage discrepancy on 2018-09-17: 25,460 miles then 25,406 miles same day.
- Recurring major tyre failures (Sep 2021) and advisories (Sep 2020, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025).
- Recurring major brake system advisories (Sep 2020, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025).
- Recurring major coil spring advisories (Sep 2020, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025).
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2026-09-22, indicating current roadworthiness.
- Low annual mileage (4,881 miles/yr) suggests light use and potential longevity.
- No major structural failures or recurring dangerous defects recorded.
- Immediate retests for failures show responsive owner maintenance.
