2018 Volkswagen Golf 1.4L Petrol · DU18 AED

This Volkswagen Golf is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test on 30 March 2026 at 48,557 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the vehicle failed a test on 16 March 2026 at 48,400 miles, the record does not list specific defects for that failure, and the subsequent pass two weeks later indicates any immediate issues were rectified promptly. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical use for an eight year old vehicle. It has covered approximately 6,070 miles per year, showing a steady increase from 31,120 miles in April 2023 to 48,557 miles in March 2026. There are no erratic jumps in mileage or long periods of inactivity that would suggest neglect or abnormal wear on the drivetrain. The MOT history is exceptionally clean, with no advisories or failures related to suspension bushes, brake discs, or structural corrosion across the last four years. This lack of recorded defects suggests a high standard of preventative maintenance by previous owners. A buyer should still perform a physical check of common wear items that do not always trigger MOT failures until they reach a critical limit. Focus on the depth of the tyre treads and the condition of the brake pads. Given the clean record, there are no recurring mechanical trends to worry about, but a manual inspection of the underbody for surface rust remains prudent for a vehicle of this age.
