2022 Volkswagen Golf Life TSI 1.0L Petrol · BL71 WTF

The 2026‑02‑04 MOT at 20,857 miles passed without any defects, indicating that the vehicle remains roadworthy and that the maintenance record shows no worsening or improving trend since the previous test. The mileage rose from 15,194 miles on 2025‑02‑04 to 20,857 miles a year later, an increase of 5,663 miles, which exceeds the average annual mileage for a four‑year‑old Golf but still reflects relatively light usage given the vehicle’s age. A buyer should therefore examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, verify that the rear brake calipers are not binding, and inspect the brake discs for scoring or corrosion, as these components are prone to deterioration even when mileage is low. The absence of recorded advisories in both tests suggests that previous owners addressed any minor wear promptly, but a physical inspection of the chassis for rust, the condition of the exhaust system, and the operation of the steering linkage is essential before purchase.
