2011 Volkswagen Golf 1.4L Petrol · DG11 HKA

The vehicle is presently roadworthy, having passed the most recent MOT on 17 February 2026 at 104,107 miles. The quick re‑test after the 11 February failure indicates that any issue prompting the earlier fail was remedied promptly, and the overall maintenance trend appears stable. Mileage averages roughly 6,940 miles per year over the 15‑year lifespan, a figure consistent with typical usage for a model of this age. The record shows a steady progression from 93,750 miles in early 2024 to 104,107 miles in early 2026, with no abrupt jumps or prolonged gaps that would suggest periods of neglect or excessive short‑term mileage accumulation. Although the MOT entries list no specific defects, the two failures—despite lacking recorded faults—warrant a visual and tactile inspection of key wear items. Examine the brake pads and discs for uneven wear or glazing, verify that the suspension components such as bushings and coil springs are free of corrosion or excessive play, and confirm tyre tread depth and uniformity. A cursory check for any surface rust on the chassis or under‑body panels will further assure structural integrity. A prospective buyer should also listen for any unusual noises from the steering column or drivetrain, and ensure that all lights, indicators, and exhaust emissions operate within normal parameters. Addressing these routine checks will provide confidence that the vehicle’s mechanical condition aligns with the clean MOT history.
