2021 Volkswagen T-ROC 1.0L Petrol · CK21 RYG

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a recurring pattern of deferred tyre replacement. While the most recent test on 30 March 2026 at 57,601 miles passed, it flagged both offside and nearside front tyres as worn to the legal limit with uneven edges. This mirrors an advisory from the March 2024 test, indicating a persistent failure to replace front rubber before it reaches critical levels. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 11,500 miles per annum. Between the March 2024 test at 34,236 miles and the March 2025 test at 47,846 miles, the car covered 13,610 miles. The subsequent interval saw another 9,755 miles leading up to the March 2026 test. This steady usage suggests regular road use rather than long periods of standing, which is generally beneficial for the health of engine seals and braking components. A buyer should prioritise a physical inspection of the front suspension and alignment, as the recurring edge wear on the front tyres across multiple years suggests potential tracking issues or worn suspension bushes. The tester did not report mechanical failures or structural corrosion, but the repeated tyre advisories imply the owner operates on reactive rather than proactive maintenance. Given the mileage, the condition of the brake discs and pads should be verified to ensure the uneven tyre wear has not caused scoring of the rotors.
