Our Verdict
A strong candidate for an electric vehicle buyer, particularly given its consistent MOT record. The low mileage and lack of defects in recent tests make this a stable option within the ID.3 range.
When inspecting this specific ID.3, focus on the software version and any recent updates, as early '1st Edition' models can sometimes benefit from firmware improvements. While the MOT history shows no mechanical defects, you should still verify the health of the battery through a dedicated EV discharge test if possible.
Because the model aggregate data shows common failures in tyres, shock absorbers, and anti-roll bars, check the tread depth and sidewall condition of the current tyres and inspect the suspension for any signs of wear or noise during a test drive. Ensure the charging cables and home charging setup (if included) are present and functional.
As an all-electric vehicle, running costs are primarily dictated by your electricity tariff and driving habits. Tax bands for EVs are generally lower, though you should check the specific current UK legislation for the year of purchase. Insurance groups for the ID.3 vary, so obtain a quote based on the KP70AAO registration.
Maintenance costs for this model are typically lower than internal combustion engine equivalents due to fewer moving parts. However, you should budget for periodic tyre replacements and brake inspections, as regenerative braking can sometimes lead to less frequent but more significant brake component attention.
Examine the tyres closely; although this vehicle has passed its MOTs without defect, the model aggregate data identifies tyres as a top failure reason for this type of vehicle. Check for uneven wear which could indicate alignment issues.
Inspect the suspension components, specifically the shock absorbers and anti-roll bars, as these are common failure points identified in the wider ID.3 dataset. Finally, check the exterior white paintwork for any signs of stone chips or damage, as is common with high-mileage electric vehicles used on motorways.
This 2020 Volkswagen ID.3 1st Edition in white has covered 38,593 miles since its first registration in October 2020. The MOT history shows three consecutive passes with no defects recorded, which is notable for a vehicle of this age. Its mileage is slightly higher than the model average of 7,930 per year, but it remains well within expected parameters for a modern EV.
The ID.3 shows a high average MOT pass rate of 91.2% across 2,006 analysed vehicles, suggesting generally stable mechanical reliability.
