2009 Volkswagen Golf 1.4L Petrol · AC58 MXK

The most recent MOT on 15 November 2024 recorded the vehicle at 165,188 miles and, despite a contradictory failed entry, listed no defects; the test outcome therefore indicates the car was roadworthy at that date. Across the five recorded examinations the results have been uniformly passing, showing a stable maintenance pattern with no escalation of faults. Mileage has risen from 142,014 miles in November 2021 to 165,188 miles in November 2024, an average increase of roughly 7,500 miles per year. This progression aligns with the typical annual mileage for a 2009 model and reveals no abrupt spikes or prolonged periods of inactivity. The consistent increments between each test suggest regular use rather than periods of neglect or excessive short‑term mileage accumulation. A prospective buyer should give particular attention to consumable wear that the MOT does not capture. Verify tyre tread depth and uniformity, inspect brake pads and discs for uneven wear or glazing, and feel for any play in the front and rear suspension bushes and coil springs. A visual survey for surface rust, especially around wheel arches and undercarriage, will confirm the absence of structural corrosion. Checking the exhaust system for leaks and ensuring the steering rack and tie‑rod ends operate without binding will round out a thorough on‑site assessment.
