2022 Volkswagen Golf Life TSI 1.5L Petrol · BP71 AEE

The 2022 Volkswagen Golf Life TSI passed its latest MOT on 23 July 2026 at 28,460 miles, confirming continued roadworthiness with only minor advisories and no major defects recorded. Mileage has risen from 17,284 miles at the 31 July 2024 test to 24,429 miles by 3 July 2025, an increase of 7,145 miles, and then to 28,460 miles by 23 July 2026, a further 4,031 miles, indicating a consistent annual usage of roughly 7,000 miles with no significant gaps in the testing record. The recurring advisories on the near‑side rear tyre cuts and light oil misting on both rear shock absorbers suggest the suspension components should be examined for worn bushes, leaking seals and proper damping, while the tyre cuts merit a close visual inspection for depth and structural integrity. A buyer should therefore prioritize a physical check of the rear suspension geometry, verify that the tyre cuts do not compromise the carcass, assess brake disc wear and caliper movement, and look for any signs of structural rust around the wheel arches and chassis, as these items reflect the most persistent mechanical concerns indicated by the MOT history.
