AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2011 Volkswagen has 15 MOT tests on record with a 87% pass rate and 85,612 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the lack of verifiable data for over a decade makes this vehicle too risky to purchase.
The vehicle shows a critical mileage anomaly: 119,665 miles by April 2019, but only 355 miles by March 2023, indicating a 15-year gap in recorded tests and a severe discrepancy.
Things to check
- AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Apr 2026): Nearside Front Tyre has a lump, caused by separation or partial failure of its s
- Critical 15-year MOT history gap: No tests recorded between 2017-05-08 and 2026-04-15.
- Mileage anomaly: 119,665 miles by 2019, but only 355 miles by 2023, a 15-year discrepancy.
- Dangerous defect: Tyres were dangerously worn in April 2026, a serious safety concern.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
- Valid MOT until April 2027, indicating current roadworthiness.
- Consistent mileage since 2019, averaging 8,938 miles/year after initial low usage.
- No recent major failures or advisories on the most recent MOT tests.
