This 2003 Volkswagen has 21 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 16,738 miles. The vehicle's long history and lack of current MOT status present insurmountable risks.

The vehicle shows suspiciously low mileage before Aug 2015 (203 mi/yr equivalent) and normal usage thereafter, indicating a significant period of inactivity or potential issues.

Things to check

No valid MOT since 2020-10-14, making it unroadworthy and illegal to drive.
First registration in Jan 2003 means the vehicle is 23 years old, incurring significant wear.
Mileage trajectory shows suspiciously low usage (203 mi/yr) before Aug 2015, raising fraud concerns.
Recurring advisories for CV boot and sill components indicate ongoing structural neglect.

Working in its favour

Most recent MOT passed despite 6 historical failures
Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) suggests good inherent safety features.
Low insurance group (27–32 out of 50) indicates lower running costs and premiums.
Consistent annual mileage post-2015 (6,377 mi/yr) suggests regular use after initial low period.
