AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2015 Volkswagen has 17 MOT tests on record with a 82% pass rate and 554 miles. The car's low recent mileage (2,012 miles in 2024) is a significant red flag for potential long-term inactivity.

The vehicle shows unusually high initial mileage (59,532 mi/yr equivalent) before Dec 2015, followed by a significant drop to 2,012 miles in 2024, indicating a period of prolonged inactivity.

Things to check

  • Unusually high initial mileage (59,532 mi/yr equivalent) before Dec 2015 suggests heavy early use.
  • Significant mileage drop to 2,012 miles in 2024 indicates prolonged inactivity, a known reliability risk.
  • Recurring advisories for front brake disc wear (Dec 2024) and suspension arm bush wear (Dec 2024) suggest ongoing wear.
  • Offside Front Lower Suspension arm pin or bush excessively worn (Dec 2024) is a major failure, though rectified.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2026-12-20, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No recent MOT failures, suggesting current maintenance is being addressed.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) confirms high safety standards.
  • Consistent annual mileage since 2015, despite initial high usage.
