Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a remarkably stable and clean maintenance trend. The most recent inspection conducted on 24 July 2025 at 51,795 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This streak of perfection across the last five annual tests indicates that the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard and has not suffered recurring mechanical failures or structural degradation over time. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,000 miles per year. Between the 2021 test at 31,460 miles and the 2025 test at 51,795 miles, the car covered only 20,335 miles. This consistent low usage suggests minimal wear on the drivetrain components, engine, and brake assemblies. However, such low mileage can sometimes lead to age-related degradation of rubber components or corrosion if the vehicle sits stationary for long periods between journeys. Given the pristine MOT history, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on components typically affected by age rather than mileage alone. Inspect the condition of the rubber parts, such as suspension bushes and engine mounts, for cracking or perishing. Check the brake discs for surface corrosion, which often occurs on low-use vehicles, and verify that the underbody shows no signs of structural rust, despite the MOT records not flagging any such issues to date.

Our Verdict

A sensible purchase for city driving, pa

When inspecting this specific 2013 model, check the condition of the tyres. Although the 2023 MOT noted cracking and wear on multiple tyres, the 2024, 2025, and 2026 tests show no defects, suggesting they were replaced. However, it is always worth checking the tread depth and age of the current set.

Given the model's aggregate data, pay close attention to the suspension arms and headlamp clarity during your physical inspection. While this specific vehicle has a clean recent record, these are common failure points for the Volkswagen Up across the wider fleet. Ensure the service history is available to complement the MOT data.

The 999cc petrol engine is designed for efficiency, making it ideal for urban environments. You can expect relatively low fuel consumption and a low insurance group, which is typical for this class of city car.

Maintenance costs are generally predictable for this model, though you should budget for periodic tyre replacements as evidenced by the 2023 MOT record. Estimated annual running costs, including fuel, tax, insurance, and basic maintenance, fall into a modest bracket.

Focus your inspection on the tyres, as the 2023 MOT history specifically highlighted issues with cracking, perishing, and wear on both the nearside rear and offside front/rear. Even though these were cleared in subsequent tests, it is a known area of maintenance for this car.

Additionally, because aggregate data for this model identifies suspension arms and headlamps as top failure reasons, check for any play in the steering or uneven tyre wear, and ensure the headlight lenses are clear and not oxidised.

This 2013 red Volkswagen Up features a 999cc petrol engine and has covered 56,337 miles as of August 2026. The MOT history shows a consistent pattern of passing, with the most recent three tests recording no defects. While there were tyre-related advisories in 2023, the vehicle has maintained a steady mileage progression that is relatively low for its age.

Aggregate data for the Volkswagen Up shows an 85.3% MOT pass rate, with common issues relating to tyres, suspension arms, and headlamps.
