This 2018 Volkswagen has 7 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 38,406 miles. The car's history shows responsive ownership, but these specific issues need thorough inspection.
The vehicle shows consistent annual usage averaging 9,893 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, and a recent spike of 89 miles in Oct 2025 is likely a retest.
Things to check

- Oct 2025: Front brake pads wearing thin advisory — indicates upcoming maintenance.
