VOLKSWAGEN ID3 1ST EDITION2020 · Electric

The Volkswagen ID3 1st Edition shows a stable roadworthiness status. The most recent MOT on 12 September 2025 at 49,924 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded. Three consecutive annual tests from September 2023 through September 2025 logged zero advisories, confirming a maintenance trend that is steady rather than deteriorating. The previous keeper clearly presented the car in test-ready condition each time. Mileage tracks typical for a 2020 model. The odometer read 24,709 miles on 9 September 2023, rose to 38,652 miles by 13 September 2024, and reached 49,924 miles at the 2025 test. Annual use ran near 14,000 then 11,000 miles, averaging 8,321 per year across the lifespan. No gap or surge appears. The slim but unblemished record implies careful, low-stress ownership. No recurring faults flag in the DVSA data, so no specific mechanical warnings guide the buyer. Nonetheless, a six-year-old electric hatchback at just under 50,000 miles should receive a ramp inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs. The tester never noted corrosion or binding calipers, yet structural integrity around subframes can mask early rust unseen during a clean test. Consumable items like tyres and wiper blades escaped defect status in all passes, thus verify tread depth and rubber condition on viewing. Battery state of health and onboard charging systems fall outside MOT scope; a specialist scan remains prudent. The clean history suggests basic upkeep was not skipped, but physical verification protects the purchase.
