2009 Volkswagen Scirocco 2.0L Diesel · FN59 LWO

The Volkswagen Scirocco presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 7 October 2025 at 96,222 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior annual test on 7 October 2024 at 78,546 miles also passed clean. The only blemish is a failure on 30 September 2024 at 78,458 miles, which the DVSA record lists with no defects recorded, suggesting an administrative or presentation issue rather than a mechanical fault. Across the five tests supplied, the vehicle shows no recurring advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions. The odometer reads 96,222 miles against a 2009 build, averaging roughly 5,660 miles per year. This is low for the age and points to light use or extended standing periods. Mileage moved from 71,497 on 24 August 2022 to 75,805 on 22 November 2023, then jumped to 78,458 by late September 2024 and 78,546 by 7 October 2024, before a larger climb to 96,222 by October 2025. The final year added near 17,700 miles, the heaviest accumulation in the record, after three years of low running. The sparse history shows clean passes aside from the unexplained 2024 failure, so no wear pattern is evidenced in the data itself. A buyer should still inspect in person for age-related degradation not captured by a pass. Low annual mileage with a recent surge can hide perished rubber components, such as suspension bushes and door seals, plus standing-water corrosion on structural members and brake lines. The tester flagged nothing on binding calipers or coil springs, but 17 years will fatigue these without a defect showing on the day. Given the clean record and the unexplained fail with no defects, verify the 30 September 2024 entry with DVSA paperwork. Confirm the 17,700-mile final-year use did not mask clutch or drivetrain wear, and check tyre sidewalls for cracking from prior inactivity.
