VOLKSWAGEN T-ROC2018 · 1.0L PETROL

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clear trend of improving maintenance standards. The most recent MOT test conducted in January 2026 at 63,895 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating that the mechanical and safety issues identified in previous years have likely been rectified or have not yet recurred. This transition from multiple advisories to a clean certificate suggests a more proactive approach to vehicle upkeep recently. The mileage pattern remains consistent with an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,000 miles per annum. The data shows steady progression, moving from 32,449 miles in early 2022 to 63,895 miles by early 2026. There is no evidence of erratic mileage accumulation or long periods of stagnation that would typically cause premature degradation of components. The intervals between tests are regular, suggesting the car has been used consistently rather than sitting idle, though it remains shielded from the heavy wear-and-tear associated with high-frequency high-mileage commuting. A buyer should focus specifically on the braking system and tyre condition during a physical inspection. Records from 2022 through late 2023 repeatedly flagged pitted and scored front brake discs as well as perishing or cracking on rear tyres. While the 2026 test passed without defects, the buyer must verify that the front discs were actually replaced and ensure the current pads have sufficient friction material. Given the history of rear tyre perishing, a close inspection of the sidewalls for dry rot is necessary to ensure the rubber has not degraded due to age, which is a common issue for vehicles with this mileage profile.
