This 2008 Volkswagen has 18 MOT tests on record with a 83% pass rate and 45,718 miles. The vehicle's age and accumulated wear also present significant potential future costs.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 9,064 miles/year, with a notable spike in 2022-2023 (13,049 and 14,703 miles/year) but no suspicious drops or round numbers.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Dec 2024): Offside Rear Tyre has ply or cords exposed (5.2.3 (d) (ii))
  • Dec 2025 MOT: Front brake pads wearing thin (ADVISORY) — a recurring issue since 2012.
  • Dec 2024 MOT: Offside Rear Tyre had ply/cords exposed (DANGEROUS) — a serious safety failure.
  • Dec 2025 MOT: Front Brake pad(s) wearing thin (ADVISORY) — immediate replacement likely needed.

Working in its favour

  • Consistent Mileage: Average 9,064 miles/year, no suspicious drops or round numbers.
  • Valid MOT: Current MOT valid until 2026-12-14, indicating recent roadworthiness checks.
  • No Major Recurring Failures: Single failure in 2011 was immediately rectified.
  • Euro NCAP Safety Rating: 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a safe and well-designed vehicle.
