2009 Volkswagen Golf 2.0L Diesel · AF09 WBZ

The Volkswagen Golf presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 16 October 2025 at 130,757 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean results across the prior four years. Annual mileage sits at a typical level for a 2009 vehicle, averaging roughly 7,692 miles per year against the 130,757 recorded. The records show steady accumulation: 86,210 miles in August 2021, 90,176 by September 2022, 101,397 by September 2023, 119,743 by October 2024, and 130,757 by October 2025. No gaps or sudden jumps appear, and every test passed with no advisories or faults logged, indicating consistent use without prolonged standing. The DVSA history flags no recurring mechanical or structural concerns across suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions. A buyer should still commission an independent physical inspection given the car's seventeen-year age and 130,757 miles, focusing on underbody structural integrity for rust, condition of suspension components, and remaining life on consumables such as tyres and wiper blades not captured by the clean MOT entries. Previous owners appear to have maintained the vehicle to a standard that satisfied annual roadworthiness testing without deferred repairs. The absence of advisories suggests basic upkeep was not skipped, though the MOT only reflects test-day condition rather than ongoing wear between tests.
