2013 Volkswagen Amarok 2.0L Diesel · AL02 ADE

The 2013 Volkswagen Amarok remains roadworthy based on its most recent MOT test on 2025-11-19 at 126,026 miles, which recorded a pass with no defects. However, the vehicle’s maintenance history shows a recurring pattern of failed and passed tests on consecutive days, such as 2025-11-18 (failed) and 2025-11-19 (passed), with identical mileages. This inconsistency suggests potential administrative errors or testing anomalies rather than mechanical issues. No defects were flagged in any test, indicating the vehicle has maintained a stable condition over the past three years. The mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging 9,694 miles annually. The 2023-11-21 test at 108,655 miles showed no defects, followed by a 2024-11-20 pass at 117,496 miles. The 2025 tests at 126,026 miles, while showing failed results on adjacent dates, did not record any mechanical or structural faults. The absence of recurring issues in the MOT records suggests the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that meets legal requirements, though the lack of detailed defect reports limits insight into potential wear. A buyer should conduct a thorough in-person inspection of the suspension components, including control arms, bushings, and coil springs, as these are common wear points in older four-wheel drives. The brake system, particularly rear calipers and discs, should be checked for binding or uneven wear, as these can develop over time without MOT detection. Additionally, the exhaust system and underbody should be scrutinized for corrosion, which may not appear in routine tests. While the MOT history shows no critical failures, the vehicle’s age and mileage warrant careful evaluation of its mechanical integrity beyond recorded data.
