This 2011 Volkswagen has 6 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 62,005 miles. While it has a 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating, the vehicle's long-term reliability and current condition warrant thorough investigation.
The vehicle shows consistent annual usage averaging 10,919 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating normal mileage progression from 62,005 miles in May 2015 to 80,294 miles in May 2018.
Things to check
- Persistent tyre advisories (May 2015, 2016, 2018) escalated to a major failure (May 2018), indicating chronic wear.
- The vehicle is currently untaxed and has a 'Not valid' MOT status as of the analysis date, requiring immediate attention.
- A DANGEROUS defect (nail in tyre) was noted in May 2018, though it was rectified, it signals past neglect.
- The 2017-05-04 MOT failure for registration plate lamps and spacing issues, though minor, suggests a lack of attention to detail.
Working in its favour

- Consistent annual mileage averaging 10,919 miles/year, showing no signs of odometer fraud.
- The vehicle has a 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating, indicating a strong safety record for its age.
- No recurring major failures on critical systems like brakes or suspension, suggesting general mechanical soundness.
