2013 Volkswagen Scirocco 2.0L Diesel · DA63 VMG

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a shift toward deferred suspension and tyre wear management. The most recent test in April 2026 at 122,393 miles identified wear on both front lower suspension arm pins and bushes. While these did not result in a failure, they indicate that the front suspension geometry is reaching the end of its functional life. This follows a clean record in 2025, suggesting that the vehicle is now entering a period where aging rubber components require attention. At 13 years old, the recorded mileage of 122,393 miles represents a consistent usage pattern of approximately 9,400 miles per annum. The data shows steady annual accumulation, with roughly 6,000 miles covered between June 2024 and April 2025, and another 6,000 miles leading into the April 2026 test. This regularity suggests the car has not suffered from long periods of standing, though the mileage history reveals a pattern of neglecting basic consumable items like tyres, as evidenced by the failure in April 2025 at 116,277 miles. A buyer must prioritize a thorough inspection of the front suspension system. The recurring mention of worn lower arm bushes in the latest record suggests that the vehicle may suffer from steering play or uneven tyre wear if not addressed. Furthermore, the history from 2023, 2025, and 2026 consistently flags uneven edge wear on the tyres, which points to an alignment issue or worn shock absorbers. The buyer should check for rapid wear on the current set and ensure that previous mechanical neglect is not compounding the wear on the drivetrain or braking components.
