AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2022 Volkswagen ID3 Family presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 16 October 2025 at 26,946 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, matching the prior clean result from 19 October 2024 at 18,077 miles. Two consecutive annual tests with zero advisories indicates the previous keeper maintained the vehicle to a standard that avoided even minor consumable wear flags. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a four-year-old car. The record shows 18,077 miles at the October 2024 test and 26,946 miles by October 2025, a 12-month gain of 8,869 miles. That equates to roughly 6,736 miles per year across the vehicle's life, confirming light-to-moderate use with no abrupt accumulation spikes or standing gaps between tests. The sparse two-entry history offers no evidence of neglected intervals. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the clean sheet. The MOT record flags no suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, binding calipers, or structural corrosion across either test, so no recurring fault pattern exists to target. Given the ID3's electric drivetrain, examine the high-voltage battery health, charging port condition, and underbody shielding for kerb damage the MOT does not assess. Treat the absent advisories as a positive signal of prior care rather than a lifetime guarantee. With the last test now roughly eight months old relative to today's date, a fresh pre-purchase examination remains sensible before funds transfer.

Our Verdict

This is a strong candidate for an electric vehicle buyer, particularly due to its clean MOT history. The low mileage and lack of recorded defects make it a sensible option for those seeking a modern ID.3.

When inspecting this specific turquoise ID.3, focus on the battery health and charging port condition. While the MOT history is clean, an MOT does not cover the software or battery degradation, so requesting a battery health report is highly recommended.

Check the tyre tread depth and condition specifically, as 'tyre' is the most common failure reason for this model across the 9,375 vehicles analysed. Ensure the interior of the 'Family' trim is free from excessive wear and that all infotainment functions are responsive.

As an electric vehicle, running costs are largely determined by your home charging setup versus public rapid charging. The ID.3 is generally efficient, but costs will vary based on your electricity tariff.

Maintenance costs for this model are typically lower than internal combustion engine equivalents due to fewer moving parts, though you should budget for regular tyre replacements and cabin filter changes. Tax and insurance groups will depend on the specific trim and driver profile.

Given that the MOT history for this vehicle shows no defects, your inspection should focus on areas the MOT does not strictly test. Check the condition of the tyres, as this is a frequent failure point for the ID.3 model aggregate.

Examine the charging cables and the integrity of the charging port for any signs of damage or corrosion. Additionally, verify that the regenerative braking feels smooth and that there are no unusual noises from the suspension when navigating uneven surfaces.

This 2022 Volkswagen ID.3 Family in Turquoise has covered 26,946 miles since its first registration in January 2022. The MOT history shows two consecutive passes in 2024 and 2025 with no defects recorded, which is notable for a relatively new vehicle. Its mileage is slightly higher than the model average of 8,213 per year, but remains well within expected parameters for a family electric car.

The ID.3 shows a high average MOT pass rate of 90.3% across 9,375 analysed vehicles, with tyres being the primary cause of failure.
