2014 Volkswagen UP 1.0L Petrol · FG64 YAE

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a remarkably stable maintenance trend. The most recent inspection on 30 October 2025 at 38,023 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the car currently meets all minimum safety standards. Following a single failure in late 2023, the vehicle has achieved three consecutive passes without advisories, suggesting that the current ownership is proactive in addressing issues before they escalate into failures. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,169 miles per year. Data from the October 2022 test at 22,960 miles to the October 2024 test at 33,002 miles shows consistent, low-intensity usage of roughly 5,000 miles per annum. This low mileage typically implies less wear on the drivetrain and engine components, although long periods of short trips can sometimes lead to age-related degradation of rubber components and fluid breakdown that does not necessarily correlate with mileage alone. A buyer should focus their in-person inspection on components susceptible to low-mileage sitting time. While the MOT record is clean, the tester should check for signs of perished suspension bushes or tyre sidewall cracking which often occur on older cars that are not driven frequently. Given the low mileage, the brake discs should be inspected for surface corrosion or binding calipers caused by lack of use, though the lack of structural advisories in the history suggests the chassis remains in good condition.
