2018 Volkswagen T-ROC 1.0L Petrol · DU18 AEE

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile with a clean roadworthiness status at its most recent inspection. The September 2025 test at 76,764 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, indicating that previous issues have been resolved. The record shows a consistent trend of passing tests over the last three years, suggesting that the vehicle has been kept in a reliable condition without recurring structural or mechanical failures. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical usage for an eight-year-old vehicle. Between April 2022 and September 2023, the car covered 17,079 miles. Since that period, the mileage has increased steadily, moving from 61,355 miles in September 2023 to 76,764 miles in September 2025. This average of approximately 7,700 miles per year suggests regular, predictable road use rather than long periods of inactivity or excessive heavy-duty driving. The single failure recorded in September 2023 at 61,355 miles indicates a momentary lapse in compliance, though the immediate pass following that test suggests the necessary remedial work was completed. Because the recent history is entirely free of advisories, there are no documented trends of worsening corrosion, suspension wear, or brake degradation. A physical inspection should focus on standard consumable wear items that the MOT does not scrutinise deeply. Given the mileage, check the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers for signs of leakage or perished rubber. While the MOT history is clean, verifying the remaining tread depth on the tyres and the thickness of the brake discs and pads remains a necessary step for a complete assessment of the vehicle's current mechanical state.
