Our Verdict

A strong prospect for those looking for a modern electric hatchback with a clean regulatory record. This ID.3 appears to be a well-used example without any recorded MOT failures to date.

When inspecting this ID.3, your priority should be verifying the battery state of health (SOH) through the onboard computer, as MOT records do not provide battery capacity data. Since this is an electric vehicle, check the service history specifically for software updates and coolant level checks, which are vital for the thermal management of the battery pack.

Pay close attention to the tyres; electric vehicles produce instant torque which can lead to faster tread wear on the front axle. Given the mileage is over 56,000 miles, ensure the tyres have been replaced recently, as a full set of premium EV-specific tyres can be a significant added expense.

Running costs for this electric model are significantly lower than comparable petrol or diesel counterparts. Road tax for electric vehicles is currently £0 (though this is subject to future government changes), and insurance groups typically fall in the mid-range for this model depending on your profile.

Maintenance is generally cheaper as there are no oil changes or spark plugs, though you should still budget for brake fluid changes, cabin filter replacements, and suspension inspections. Estimated annual costs depend heavily on your home charging versus public charging habits.

While the MOT history shows no defects, you should manually inspect the physical condition of the undercarriage for any stone chips or corrosion, which is common on higher-mileage cars. Check the charging port for any signs of damage or debris, and ensure the charging cable is included with the sale.

Test the regenerative braking system by ensuring the car slows smoothly when you lift off the accelerator. Since there have been no MOT failures, focus on the interior electronics—check the infotainment system and digital cockpit for any glitches or lag, as these are common points of interest in early ID.3 models.

This 2020 Volkswagen ID.3 Business has covered 56,565 miles, which is consistent with average usage for a six-year vehicle. Its MOT history is exemplary, with three consecutive passes between 2023 and 2026 showing no defects or advisories recorded. Finished in grey, it represents a modern EV offering that has maintained a high standard of compliance throughout its life.

The ID.3 platform is generally considered reliable, though early production models can occasionally experience software-related glitches that require dealer updates.
