This 2013 Volkswagen has 12 MOT tests on record with a 83% pass rate and 9,051 miles. The car's extremely low usage over 13 years is a major red flag for potential issues.
The vehicle shows extremely low mileage of 19,186 miles over 13 years, averaging only 1,505 miles per year, which is significantly below the UK average of 8,000 miles per year.
Things to check
- Extremely low mileage: 19,186 miles over 13 years (Jan 2013) — well below UK average.
- Recurring tyre advisories: Front tyres worn close to limit (Sep 2017, 2018, 2019) and rear tyre damage (Sep 2025).
- Recurring brake advisories: Imbalanced rear brakes (Sep 2019, 2024) and parking brake efficiency (Sep 2019, 2024).
- Mileage anomaly: Very low annual usage (1,505 mi/yr) suggests potential odometer issues or long periods of inactivity.
Working in its favour

- No major structural failures or dangerous defects recorded in the MOT history.
- Consistent retesting and immediate rectification of failures, showing owner responsiveness.
