2022 Volkswagen T-ROC Active TSI EVO S-A 1.5L Petrol · BL71 VRW

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, passing its most recent inspection on May 8 2026 at 38,658 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, moving from a clean record in the previous year to a minor advisory regarding a damaged offside rear outer tyre. While the car passed the latest test, the history indicates that wear-related components are beginning to require attention as the vehicle enters its fourth year cycle. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical annual use for this age, averaging approximately 9,600 miles per year. Between the August 2024 test at 23,516 miles and the August 2025 test at 32,328 miles, the vehicle covered roughly 9,000 miles, showing steady and predictable usage. This regularity suggests the vehicle has not been subjected to extreme stress or long periods of stationary neglect, which is beneficial for the health of the rubber components and fluid-related systems. A buyer should focus specifically on the braking system during a physical inspection. The August 2025 test flagged pitted and scored front brake discs on both sides along with wear on the rear discs. Although these were not considered serious weaknesses at that time, the accumulation of over 6,000 miles since that report suggests the components are nearing the end of their effective life. The inspector should also verify the thickness of the pads and check for uneven wear while ensuring the sidewall damage noted in the May 2026 test has been rectified to prevent a structural blowout.
