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

This 2007 Volkswagen has 23 MOT tests on record with a 65% pass rate and 43,025 miles. While mileage is consistent, the pattern of neglect and recent failures warrant a thorough investigation.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 7,912 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or round numbers, but a significant 2023 service gap is noted.

Things to check

  • Six test failures recorded across 13 MOTs (2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2025) indicates systemic neglect.
  • Recurring advisories on brakes (11), engine/oil (6), tyres (4), and suspension (4) across multiple years point to chronic wear.
  • The 2023 MOT gap suggests the vehicle may have been off-road or neglected during that period.
  • The most recent MOT (Mar 2025) failed but passed the same day, indicating immediate repairs were made.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 8 historical failures
  • Consistent annual mileage averaging 7,912 miles/year, well below UK average, suggests light use.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage manipulation in the provided MOT history.
  • The vehicle has a valid MOT until March 2026, despite the history of failures and advisories.
