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 19 MOT tests on record with a 74% pass rate and 19,079 miles. The vehicle's mileage trajectory is highly irregular, with a significant drop in annual usage, raising serious questions about its maintenance and true condition.
The mileage trajectory is highly irregular, with 93,205 miles by Feb 2019, then only 7,766 miles added by Feb 2020, followed by a significant drop to 3,014 miles/year between 2024 and 2026.
Things to check
- Recurring major suspension failures (Feb 2020, Feb 2021, Feb 2022) indicate chronic neglect.
- Persistent tyre advisories and failures (Feb 2020, Feb 2021, Feb 2022) suggest a systemic issue.
- Brake binding failure (Feb 2025) and anti-roll bar linkage issues (Feb 2025) point to widespread wear.
- Mileage dropped significantly from 7,766 miles/year (Feb 2020) to 3,014 miles/year (Mar 2026).
Working in its favour
- No evidence of odometer fraud; mileage trajectory is highly irregular but not fraudulent.
- The vehicle has a valid MOT until March 2027, indicating it is currently roadworthy.
- No recurring emissions failures, which is a positive for the vehicle's environmental performance.
- The car has a 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating, suggesting good inherent safety features.
