2021 Volkswagen T-ROC Design TSI EVO S-A 1.5L Petrol · B3 JAN

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift toward reactive repairs regarding consumable components. The most recent test on 22 October 2025 at 41,889 miles passed despite several advisories concerning thin rear brake pads and minor damage to the nearside rear and offside front tyres. While the vehicle passed the inspection, the presence of these advisories indicates that the owner is only now addressing wear items as they approach legal or safety limits. The mileage pattern is consistent with a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,400 miles per year. The record shows a 4,975-mile interval between the October 2024 and 2025 tests, suggesting steady and predictable usage. The brief failure on 14 October 2024 at 36,908 miles was specifically due to a cut in the offside rear tyre reaching the cords, which was rectified to allow a passing result just four days later. A buyer should personally inspect the tyre condition closely, as the recurring mention of cuts across multiple axles suggests a history of kerb damage or rough driving. The advisory for thin rear brake pads in the 2025 test implies that an immediate service is likely required to prevent rotor scoring. Given the lack of recorded structural corrosion or suspension failures in the history, the primary focus should remain on verifying the remaining life of the brake components and the integrity of the tyre sidewalls to ensure no hidden damage remains present.
