This 2004 Volkswagen has 12 MOT tests on record with a 100% pass rate and 49,459 miles. The vehicle's age and mileage trajectory warrant careful consideration.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 11,604 miles/year, with a notable spike of 34,556 miles between May 2013 and March 2015, but no decreases or anomalies.
Things to check
- The 2014 MOT gap is a significant concern, as it suggests the vehicle may have been off-road or not maintained during that period.
- The vehicle is currently Untaxed and has a Not Valid MOT, requiring immediate re-registration and a new MOT test.
Working in its favour
- No MOT failures recorded across 12 tests, demonstrating a generally well-maintained vehicle.
- Consistent annual mileage averaging 11,604 miles/year, indicating regular use and no suspicious drops or spikes.
- The 2017 Euro NCAP rating of 5/5 stars indicates a high level of safety for its time.
- The 2018 MOT pass with a clean record shows the owner addressed previous advisories promptly.
