AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2011 Volkswagen has 13 MOT tests on record with a 69% pass rate and 31,712 miles. While it has a recent clean MOT pass, the pattern of recurring tyre issues and high mileage demand careful consideration.

The vehicle shows high annual usage, averaging 15,247 miles per year, with a significant spike in the first 3 years (114,989 miles by July 2018), but consistent readings thereafter.

Things to check

  • High mileage for age: 31,712 miles over 15 years (Jan 2011) suggests heavy commercial use.
  • Recurring tyre failures and advisories: 4 separate tyre-related issues across 5 MOT tests (2018, 2019, 2020).
  • Failed MOT on 2015-07-25 for front brake pads less than 1.5 mm thick.
  • Current MOT expired 2021-10-23; vehicle is now on SORN status.

Working in its favour

  • Recent clean MOT pass on 2020-10-24 with no current advisories.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering.
  • Consistent retesting and immediate rectification of failures.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates good structural integrity.
