2013 Volkswagen UP 1.0L Petrol · CX13 LWS

The Volkswagen Up presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 22 December 2025 at 61,165 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean results across the available history. No advisories or failures appear in any entry, indicating the vehicle has not required corrective work within the MOT regime over the past four years. Annual mileage sits well below typical expectations for a 2013 registration. The record shows 48,665 miles at the 4 January 2022 test, rising to 51,193 by 9 January 2023, 54,282 by 15 January 2024, 57,927 by 6 January 2025, and 61,165 by December 2025. That equates to roughly 3,000 to 4,200 miles added each year, confirming light use across the period. The sparse, clean ledger gives no evidence of neglect or deferred maintenance, though long idle spells common to low-mileage cars remain outside the MOT scope. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the car's age and likely stationary periods. Standing vehicles often develop perished rubber components and surface corrosion on structural underbody points even when test results stay clear. The absence of flagged faults means no specific mechanical weakness is documented, but the 13-year timeline warrants checking for rust at sills and subframes. Given the fault-free record and low annual accumulation, previous ownership appears to have maintained the Up to a basic pass standard without lapse. Prospective purchasers should verify service history independently, as MOT cleanliness does not confirm cambelt, fluid, or consumable intervals were observed.
