Our Verdict

Proceed with extreme caution or look elsewhere. This vehicle is now 24 years old and has not had a recorded MOT test since 2016, suggesting it may have been off the road for a significant period.

If you are considering this vehicle, a full pre-purchase inspection by a qualified mechanic is non-negotiable. You must determine if the car has been garaged or left exposed to the elements, as long-term storage can lead to seized brakes, perished fuel lines, and hidden corrosion in the sills and sub-frames.

Check the service history thoroughly to see if the timing belt has been replaced, as failure on this 1.9 TDI engine will be catastrophic. Negotiate the price down significantly to account for the inevitable costs of recommissioning a vehicle that has not seen an MOT test since 2016.
