2015 Volkswagen UP 1.0L Petrol · AF65 LRL

The Volkswagen Up presents as roadworthy following a clean pass on 12 March 2026 at 47,324 miles, with the maintenance trend stable across its recorded history. The vehicle carries no advisories or defects in any test, and the most recent failure on 9 March 2026 at 47,318 miles recorded no defects, indicating an administrative or presentational rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Mileage stands low for an eleven-year-old car. The record shows 33,371 miles at the 31 July 2023 test, rising to 40,053 by 24 July 2024, then 45,062 on 26 July 2025, and 47,324 by March 2026. That equates to roughly 4,300 miles per year, with even annual increments and no sudden accumulation. Sparse but consistent entries suggest light, steady use, though the absence of intermediate tests leaves pre-2023 wear undocumented. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the car's age and likely periods of standing. Low mileage can mask perished rubbers or surface corrosion on structural members that a pass with no defects will not capture. The clean record offers no recurring faults to target, yet the 2024 to 2025 gain of nearly 5,000 miles warrants checking tyre condition and exhaust emissions in person. The March 2026 failure with zero defects points to a paperwork or identification issue at the testing station rather than owner neglect. Previous keepers appear to have maintained basic statutory testing discipline. Verify service history separately, as MOT data alone confirms legal roadworthiness, not mechanical longevity.
