Our Verdict
A sensible purchase for those seeking a
Given the low mileage, your primary focus should be on verifying the service history to ensure the 1.4L petrol engine has received regular oil changes. While the MOT records show no recent mechanical defects, you should check for any signs of the suspension wear common to this model, as 'suspension arm' is a top failure reason for the Scirocco aggregate data.
When negotiating, ask for evidence of recent tyre replacements, as the 2022 MOT failure highlighted issues with perishing and cuts on the rear tyres. Ensure that the low mileage is consistent with the vehicle's age and that there are no discrepancies in the odometer readings across the recorded MOT history.
The 1390cc petrol engine is generally efficient for a sporty coupe, though actual costs will depend on driving style. You should expect moderate fuel economy typical of a small-capacity turbocharged petrol engine.
Maintenance costs for a Scirocco can vary; while the recent MOTs have been clean, you should budget for common wear items like tyres and brake components. The estimated annual running cost, including fuel, tax, insurance, and routine maintenance, is expected to be in the mid-range for this vehicle class.
Specifically inspect the tyres, as the 2022 MOT failure at 50,087 miles involved multiple issues including cracking, perishing, and a cut reaching the cords. Even if they look fine now, check for uneven wear which could indicate suspension issues.
Additionally, because 'suspension arm' and 'parking brake efficiency' are identified as top failure reasons for this model aggregate, perform a test drive to listen for knocks or rattles from the underside and ensure the handbrake holds firmly on an incline. Check the side repeater lenses as well, as a defective lens was noted in the 2023 MOT.
This 2013 blue Volkswagen Scirocco (FD63LDN) has covered 57,158 miles, which is significantly lower than the model average of 7,448 miles per year. The MOT history shows a recent trend of clean passes, with the most recent two tests in 2024 and 2025 recording no defects. While there were tyre-related issues in 2022, the vehicle has maintained a consistent pass rate since then.
Aggregate data for this model shows a 79.3% average MOT pass rate, with common failures linked to tyres, suspension arms, and parking brake efficiency.
