This 2016 Volkswagen has 9 MOT tests on record with a 78% pass rate and 60,983 miles. While it had a dangerous tyre failure and significant brake advisories, these were promptly addressed and do not indicate systemic neglect.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 10,195 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes, showing normal usage.
Things to check
- Dangerous tyre defects on 2019-09-13 (both rear tyres) required immediate replacement.
- Front and rear brake discs were advised as worn/pitted on 2019-09-13, indicating significant wear.
- Nearside Front Road wheel was slightly distorted on 2019-09-13, a minor but notable structural issue.
Working in its favour
- Consistent annual mileage averaging 10,195 miles/year, well above UK average of 8,000.
- No recurring major failures or dangerous defects in the most recent MOT tests.
- All past failures (tyres, wipers) were immediately rectified and passed on the same or next day.
- Valid MOT until September 2026, offering peace of mind for the next two years.
