This 2008 Volkswagen has 16 MOT tests on record with a 94% pass rate and 14,795 miles. The very low mileage for its age, combined with a 2011 MOT failure for a major suspension component, points to potential underlying issues or unverified history.
The vehicle shows extremely low usage, averaging only 2,817 miles/year, with a critical 2011 MOT failure for a major suspension component occurring at just 14,795 miles, a clear red flag for potential odometer fraud.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below UK average: 49,667 miles over 18 years.
