This 2011 Volkswagen has 16 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 73,213 miles. While it has a 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating, the vehicle's age and high usage warrant careful consideration.
The vehicle shows high annual usage averaging 13,979 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or round numbers, but expect accelerated wear.
Things to check
- High mileage of 191,494 miles (Sep 2024) indicates significant wear and tear.
- Recurring brake disc advisories (Sep 2019, Sep 2020) and failures (Sep 2020) suggest ongoing maintenance needs.
- Recurring tyre advisories (Sep 2020, Sep 2021, Sep 2022) and failures (Sep 2022) point to consistent component replacement.
- Electronic parking brake failure (Jan 2019) and suspension arm failures (Sep 2020) highlight past system weaknesses.
Working in its favour
- Consistent high mileage suggests regular use and no odometer fraud.
- No major structural corrosion or dangerous defects found in the MOT history.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a safe and well-designed vehicle.
- The vehicle has a long service history with consistent mileage, showing active use.
