AI verdict BUY 77/100

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

This 2015 Volkswagen has 9 MOT tests on record with a 89% pass rate and 55,268 miles. While there are historical advisories for brakes and tyres, these were promptly addressed, indicating a well-maintained vehicle.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 9,947 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, and a recent low annual usage (e.g., 3,187 miles in 2022) is typical for a diesel.

Things to check

  • Jun 2022: Nearside Rear Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (DANGEROUS defect) — immediately rectified.
  • Jun 2020: Multiple advisories for worn brake discs and thin rear pads — indicates a pattern of brake wear.

Working in its favour

  • Strong MOT record: 8 of 9 tests passed, with no recurring dangerous defects.
  • Consistent, low annual mileage: 9,947 miles/year, well below UK average.
  • Immediate rectification of all failures: DANGEROUS brake failure in Jun 2022 was fixed same-day.
  • Recent clean MOT pass: Jun 2025 test passed with no advisories or failures.
