This 2014 Volkswagen has 14 MOT tests on record with a 64% pass rate and 49,757 miles. While mileage is consistent, the pattern of wear items suggests potential neglect.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 8,765 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but shows a significant drop in recent years (e.g., 1,623 miles in 2025).

Things to check

  • Dangerous brake failure recorded on 2017-03-02 MOT test.
  • Recurring suspension advisories (shock absorbers) noted in 2017, 2018, 2020, and 2020.

Working in its favour
