2010 Volkswagen Sharan 2.0L Diesel · AD59 XMT

The 2010 Volkswagen Sharan presents a currently roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 20 May 2025 at 179,295 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the prior clean pass on 24 May 2024 at 173,053 miles confirms no outstanding advisories or mechanical faults across the available history. The record shows no worsening pattern and no recurring defects requiring corrective action. Mileage sits at 179,295 against a 16-year lifespan, equating to roughly 11,200 miles per year, which is typical use for a people carrier of this age. The distance climbed from 154,544 miles at the July 2021 test to 163,286 by October 2022, then to 173,053 in May 2024 and 179,295 by May 2025, reflecting steady annual accumulation with no abrupt jumps. A failed test on 23 May 2024 at 173,053 miles preceded the pass one day later with no defects logged, suggesting an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault. The clean MOT lineage means no specific suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or corrosion issues were flagged for the buyer to chase. Given the age and 179,295 miles, a physical inspection should still verify underbody structural integrity, condition of rubber suspension components, and brake caliper operation, as these wear items escape MOT detection until failure. The previous owner clearly kept the Sharan to a passable standard, though the sparse five-entry record limits insight into consumable replacement cycles.
