2015 Volkswagen Golf 2.0L Petrol · DU15 POV

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a pass on June 17, 2026 at 66,328 miles. The maintenance trend appears reactive, as the most recent test failed just one day prior due to a fractured offside rear coil spring and a cut offside front tyre. While these specific issues were rectified immediately to achieve a pass, the failure of a suspension component suggests that parts are now reaching the end of age-related fatigue, which is common for a vehicle of this era despite low mileage. The mileage profile is consistent with an eleven-year-old car, averaging approximately 6,000 miles per year. The record shows steady progression from 20,212 miles in April 2018 to 66,328 miles in June 2026. This low annual usage typically implies less wear on the engine and drivetrain, but the long intervals between tests, such as the 4,000-mile gap between June 2024 and June 2026, can lead to the degradation of rubber components and fluid quality if the car sits for extended periods. A buyer should inspect the suspension geometry for further signs of wear, as the fractured coil spring often puts undue stress on adjacent bushes and dampers. The history shows recurring issues with uneven tyre wear, including inner edge toothing noted in 2019 and a worn nearside front tyre in 2023, which indicates potential alignment faults or worn bushings. Additionally, the front brake discs were flagged as worn in 2023; a physical check of the current thickness and surface condition is necessary to ensure they do not require immediate replacement.
