2005 Volkswagen Golf 1.6L Petrol · WF55 ABU

The vehicle is roadworthy according to the most recent MOT on 13 May 2025 at 107,601 miles, where the tester recorded no defects. No repeat faults appear across the three consecutive tests, indicating a stable condition. Mileage climbs from 103,767 miles in the May 2023 test to 105,964 miles a year later and to 107,601 miles in May 2025, an average gain of about 2,200 miles per year. The low annual increase reflects light usage or long periods of standing, which is unusual for a 21‑year‑old car. Gaps between tests are consistent, with no evidence of sudden mileage spikes. A buyer should inspect the rear suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking or hardening, and examine the brake discs and calipers for seizure or uneven wear. Check the chassis and wheel arches for rust that could affect structural integrity, and verify the exhaust for corrosion‑related failures. Finally, confirm the timing belt and tensioner show no signs of wear, as these components often degrade on low‑mileage, high‑age examples.
