This 2013 Volkswagen has 14 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 25,072 miles. The vehicle's past safety record and inconsistent usage make it a high-risk purchase.
The vehicle shows a critical mileage anomaly: 25,072 miles at its first MOT in June 2016, but then a massive 71,233 miles by June 2019, indicating a significant data error or potential odometer fraud.
Things to check
- DANGEROUS defect: Offside Front Tyre has ply or cords exposed (Jun 2019) — immediate safety risk.
- Recurring dangerous tyre defects: Multiple tyre failures and advisories across 6 tests (Jun 2019, Jul 2022, Oct 2024, Oct 2025).

- Recurring brake failures: Multiple brake failures and advisories across 3 tests (Jun 2021, Oct 2024, Oct 2025).
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until October 2026: Current MOT status is valid, providing immediate peace of mind.
- Consistent annual mileage: Once corrected for the anomaly, the vehicle shows normal annual usage (9,567 miles/year).
- Immediate retest passes: All failures were immediately rectified and passed on retest, showing responsive ownership.
- No major structural corrosion: The MOT history does not indicate significant corrosion issues.
