2021 Volkswagen ID3 Life Electric · CF71 AGY

The Volkswagen ID3 Life presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 24 March 2026 at 119,213 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, following two earlier clean passes. The vehicle shows no advisories or failures across the available history, indicating consistent compliance with statutory roadworthiness standards. The recorded mileage of 119,213 at the 2026 test reflects roughly 23,800 miles per year since first registration, a high accumulation for a five-year-old electric hatchback. Between 6 November 2024 at 109,296 miles and 4 November 2025 at 116,851 miles the car covered 7,555 miles, then 2,362 miles to the March 2026 test. The sparse three-entry record shows no gaps in testing and no sudden unexplained jumps, though the limited dataset prevents deeper trend analysis on consumable wear. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc condition given the elevated annual mileage. The absence of flagged corrosion or structural defects in the MOT record is reassuring, but high-use vehicles of this age commonly develop worn trailing arm bushes or reduced brake caliper efficiency not captured in a pass result. Verify in person that tyre tread depths and wiper blades remain within limits, as these consumables degrade with mileage and were not advised at last test. The clean history implies prior owners maintained basic statutory upkeep, yet the 119,213-mile figure warrants scrutiny of drivetrain mounts and chassis integrity beyond the DVSA check.
