This 2013 Volkswagen has 12 MOT tests on record with a 92% pass rate and 27,736 miles. The car's extremely low annual mileage for its age, combined with a recent MOT pass, demands thorough investigation.
The vehicle shows suspiciously low mileage of 27,736 miles over 13 years, with a significant drop in annual usage from 2016 onwards, indicating potential odometer fraud.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below average: 27,736 miles over 13 years (UK average: 8,000 miles/year).
- Mileage anomaly: Suspiciously low usage before Oct 2016 (131 mi/yr equivalent).
- Tyre wear advisory noted in Sep 2025, indicating imminent replacement.
Working in its favour
- No dangerous defects recorded in the MOT history.
- Most recent MOT passed on 2025-09-19, valid until 2026-10-02.
- Consistent annual mileage increases since 2016, despite low overall numbers.
- No recurring failures on critical safety systems like steering or suspension.
