2018 Volkswagen Golf 2.0L Diesel · DS02 MOR

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a consistent history of clean MOT passes over the last five years. The most recent test on 24 April 2025 at 71,478 miles resulted in zero defects or advisories. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the previous owners have proactively addressed mechanical and safety requirements before they reached a failing threshold, as evidenced by the lack of recorded faults. The mileage accumulation is consistent with an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,000 miles per annum. Data shows a notable increase in usage between April 2022 (38,634 miles) and April 2023 (56,163 miles), where the car covered over 17,500 miles in a single year. Since then, usage has returned to a more moderate rate of roughly 7,500 miles annually. This pattern suggests the vehicle has been used regularly, which helps prevent the seal degradation and corrosion associated with long periods of standing stationary. While the digital record shows no recurring issues such as structural corrosion or failing brake components, a physical inspection should focus on components prone to wear at the 70,000-mile mark. A buyer should verify the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these often begin to show fatigue at this mileage. Given the clean history, the vehicle appears to have been well-cared, but checking for thinning brake discs or uneven tyre wear remains standard practice to ensure the recorded history matches physical reality.
