2010 Volkswagen Golf SE TDI 1.6L Diesel · AS03 GEL

The Volkswagen Golf passed its most recent MOT on 6 October 2025 at 151,007 miles with no defects recorded, indicating the vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the test nine days earlier on 27 September 2025 produced a failure at 150,294 miles with no defects formally listed, a pattern consistent with administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than a mechanical fault. Annual mileage averages close to 9,400 miles across the car's sixteen-year life, a typical use profile for this age of vehicle. The records show a clean pass at 96,170 miles on 15 December 2021, then a gap of roughly sixteen months before the 22 April 2023 pass at 116,183 miles. From that point the car covered 10,339 miles to the April 2024 test at 126,522 miles, then accelerated to 150,294 miles by late September 2025, an increase of over 23,000 miles in seventeen months suggesting heavier recent use. No advisories or defects appear across any recorded test, so the MOT history alone reveals no recurring suspension, brake, or corrosion concerns. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of the coil springs, suspension bushes, brake discs, and underbody structural integrity given the age and the elevated mileage accumulated in the last two years. The September 2025 failure with zero recorded defects warrants confirmation that the DVSA entry reflects no suppressed mechanical fault before purchase.
