2016 Volkswagen Golf 2.0L Diesel · CF16 ABX

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a perfectly stable maintenance trend over the last three years. The most recent MOT test conducted on 26 August 2025 at 87,385 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded, mirroring the previous inspections. This consistent performance suggests that the owner has maintained the vehicle proactively and likely addressed minor issues before they could escalate into test failures. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,700 miles per annum. Between the August 2023 test at 79,118 miles and the August 2024 test at 83,665 miles, the car covered 4,547 miles, followed by another 3,720 miles in the subsequent year leading to the 2025 test. This regular, low-intensity usage is generally favourable to rubber components and seals than long periods of inactivity or high-frequency motorway commuting. While the digital record shows no recurring faults or advisories, a physical inspection should still focus on components that degrade with age regardless of mileage. Given the vehicle's age, a buyer should verify the condition of suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of cracking or perish. The brake discs should also be checked for surface corrosion or excessive wear, as the MOT does not measure the thickness of the pads or discs unless they cause a functional failure.
