VOLKSWAGEN SCIROCCO2010 · 2.0L DIESEL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 23 December 2025 with 112,613 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car has consistently met passing standards over the last two years. The failure on 8 December 2025 at just 74 miles prior to the pass suggests a minor, easily rectified defect, such as a blown bulb or a minor sensor fault, which was addressed immediately before the re-test. The mileage pattern is consistent with a 16-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,000 miles per year. The record shows steady usage with clear intervals between annual tests. For instance, the car covered 12,052 miles between December 2023 and December 2024, followed by another 9,761 miles in the subsequent year period. This regularity suggests the vehicle has been used regularly rather than sitting stationary for long periods, which is generally beneficial for the health of seals, brake components, and fluid-related systems. While the MOT history is clean of recurring advisories, a buyer should perform a physical inspection of the suspension components and underbody. Given the age of the Scirocco, checking for perished rubber control arm bushes and wear on coil springs is essential as these are common points of failure. Also examine the brake discs for thinning or uneven wear, as the MOT record does not track the remaining life of these consumables. The absence of structural corrosion notes in the history is a positive indicator for the integrity of the chassis.
