This 2010 Volkswagen has 11 MOT tests on record with a 73% pass rate and 71,734 miles. The vehicle has been off the road since 2019, with a 2019-01-19 MOT expiry.
The vehicle shows exceptionally high annual usage of 28,340 miles/year, but a critical anomaly exists: only 256,620 miles were recorded by Jan 2019, despite a 2010 registration date, indicating a 9-year period of very low usage (674 miles/year equivalent) before high usage resumed.
Things to check
- Mileage anomaly: 674 miles/year equivalent from 2010 to 2015, then 28,340 miles/year from 2015 onwards.
- Vehicle has been off the road since 2019 with a 2019-01-19 MOT expiry.
- High annual mileage (28,340 miles/year) indicates significant wear and tear on components.
- First MOT test on 2019-01-19 recorded 256,620 miles, which is unusually high for a 2010 vehicle.
Working in its favour
- Single MOT pass on 2019-01-19 with no failures recorded.
- No recurring major failures or dangerous defects found in the MOT history.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates good safety features.
- Consistent high mileage suggests regular use and maintenance, despite recent MOT lapse.
