2015 Volkswagen UP 1.0L Petrol · FG65 XEB

The Volkswagen Up presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 19 August 2025 at 41,529 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean results across five consecutive annual examinations. Annual mileage remains low for an eleven-year-old vehicle. The record shows 17,580 miles at the 26 August 2021 test, rising to 20,283 by 8 August 2022, 24,453 on 14 August 2023, 30,226 on 16 August 2024, and 41,529 on 19 August 2025. That equates to roughly 3,775 miles per year overall, with the largest single-year jump of 11,303 miles occurring between the 2024 and 2025 tests. The DVSA data contains no failures, advisories, or recorded defects across the entire sequence, so the history alone gives no indication of skipped consumable replacement or neglected structural care. A clean MOT ledger does not certify component condition, only that the tester found nothing reportable on the day. The buyer should still inspect suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs for age-related fatigue, since eleven years of service can degrade rubber and metal even at low mileage. Corrosion on sills and subframes warrants a close visual check despite no advisories being raised. Given the gentle use and fault-free record, previous owners appear to have maintained the car to statutory minimum standards at least. The 2025 mileage spike suggests the vehicle entered more regular service recently; verify service history and confirm cambelt or chain interval compliance before purchase.
