AI verdict CAUTION 45/100
AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2010 Volkswagen has 21 MOT tests on record with a 62% pass rate and 34,210 miles. While mileage is consistent, the pattern of failures and advisories on critical systems like brakes and tyres indicates a high-risk purchase.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 7,508 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but the low annual usage for a 16-year-old vehicle warrants careful inspection.
Things to check
- Engine MIL inoperative or indicates a malfunction (8.2.1.2 (h)) — recurring issue across multiple tests.
- Nearside Rear Suspension arm corroded and seriously weakened (5.3.3 (b) (i)) — major failure on 2019-11-20.
- Brake pads wearing thin (1.1.13 (a) (ii)) — recurring advisory since 2021-11-19.
- Tyres worn close to legal limit (5.2.3 (e)) — recurring advisory since 2020-11-20.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 8 historical failures
- Valid MOT until November 2026, providing immediate peace of mind.
- Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or spikes.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering.
