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

This 2007 Volkswagen has 23 MOT tests on record with a 70% pass rate and 81,632 miles. The high mileage and numerous advisories for wear items like tyres and brakes indicate significant upcoming maintenance costs.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, showing normal usage of 10,845 miles/year, with a notable drop in annual usage from 2019 to 2026, but no signs of odometer fraud.

Things to check

  • Recurring suspension arm advisories across 5 tests (2013, 2019, 2020, 2022, 2024) indicate chronic wear.
  • Recurring brake disc advisories across 4 tests (2019, 2020, 2022, 2024) suggest ongoing maintenance needs.
  • High mileage (207,365 miles) for a 2007 vehicle means significant wear and tear is expected.
  • Multiple recurring light failures (2010, 2013, 2026) and washer issues (2010, 2026) point to a pattern of neglect.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until February 2027 provides immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
  • Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating genuine usage.
  • No major structural failures or recurring dangerous defects recorded in the MOT history.
  • The vehicle has a long, consistent service history, which is a positive for its age.
