2007 Volkswagen Sharan 1.9L Diesel · KS57 AEW

The vehicle last passed an MOT on 14 June 2022 at 163 620 miles with no defects recorded. Since that test the car has not been retested, creating a four‑year maintenance gap that erodes confidence in its current roadworthiness. The absence of a recent test means the maintenance trend is effectively deteriorating; the vehicle cannot be assumed fit for the road until a fresh MOT is completed. The sole MOT entry shows 163 620 miles logged in mid‑2022. Over the ensuing ~4 years the mileage figure has not been updated, which could indicate very low usage or, more likely, that the car has not been driven regularly. The average annual mileage of roughly 8 600 miles aligns with typical wear for a 19‑year‑old vehicle, yet the lack of recent mileage data prevents any assessment of consumable wear trends such as tyre tread or brake disc thickness. A buyer should inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for deterioration, examine the rear brake calipers for binding and the discs for uneven wear, and check the exhaust system for rust or leaks. The underbody and wheel arches need scrutiny for structural corrosion, while tyre tread depth and pressure should be verified. Because the MOT has lapsed, a full service inspection and a brake performance test are essential before any purchase is finalised.
