VOLKSWAGEN SHARAN SEL TDI S-A2019 · 2.0L DIESEL

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status based on its most recent testing history. The most recent MOT conducted on 13 August 2025 at 27,091 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the mechanical and structural components currently meet minimum legal standards. While a single failure occurred in 2024, the subsequent pass without any advisories suggests that the owner is proactive in addressing identified issues before they can persist. The mileage profile is notably low for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,870 miles per annum. Between the September 2022 test at 11,043 miles and the August 2024 test at 19,255 miles, the car covered 8,212 miles over two years. This consistent low-mileage pattern suggests light annual use, which typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine compared to average averages. However, such low-mileage operation can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components, suspension bushes, and corrosion on brake discs if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods between journeys. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on signs of age-related wear and long-term sitting. Although the record is generally clean, you should check for surface pitting on the brake rotors and seized calipers which often affect low-mileage vehicles. The failure in August 2024 at 19,234 miles occurred just nine days before a successful retest that month, suggesting a specific fault was quickly rectified, but the exact nature of that fault remains unquantified. Given the lack of structural advisories in the recent history, the chassis integrity appears well-maintained for its age.
