2007 Volkswagen Beetle 1.6L Petrol · FH07 EWL

The vehicle is not roadworthy at this moment because the most recent MOT expired on 21 February 2025, and no subsequent test has been recorded. That last test was a pass at 97,414 miles, and the earlier failures in February 2025 and February 2023 recorded no defects, indicating a stable maintenance pattern rather than a worsening one. Mileage has risen from 86,297 miles on 2 February 2023 to 97,414 miles on 21 February 2025, an increase of 11,117 miles over roughly two years – a rate of about 5,500 miles per annum, consistent with the overall average of 5,127 miles per year for a 19‑year‑old Beetle. No large gaps or sudden spikes appear in the record; the mileage progression is smooth and aligns with low‑usage expectations for the model’s age. A prospective buyer should verify the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as low mileage does not preclude wear from age‑related fatigue. Inspect brake discs and pads for any latent glazing or uneven wear that might have been missed when the failures listed no defects. Examine tyre tread depth and sidewall integrity, and conduct a thorough visual check for corrosion on the chassis and exhaust system, especially around mounting points that can develop rust despite the vehicle’s modest mileage. Confirm that the current MOT is renewed and that any hidden faults not captured in the record are addressed before purchase.
