2018 Volkswagen Golf 1.4L Petrol · GD18 AAU

The vehicle's most recent MOT test in September 2025 at 44,089 miles was a pass, but it was preceded by a failure for ineffective wiper blades. This suggests the maintenance trend is stable, with minor consumable wear being addressed promptly. The previous test in August 2024 at 39,561 miles was clean, indicating no major mechanical issues. However, recurring tyre advisories in 2022 and 2023 at 27,097 and 34,241 miles respectively, highlight a pattern of basic upkeep being overlooked. The mileage pattern is unusually low for a vehicle this age. The 2025 test at 44,089 miles shows just 5,528 miles since the 2024 test, which is significantly less than the annual average of 5,511 miles. This could reflect lighter use or extended periods of inactivity. The data is clean with no rapid mileage accumulation, but the low overall mileage suggests the vehicle may have been stored or used sparingly. A buyer should inspect the suspension and tyres in person. The recurring tyre advisories indicate potential wear or damage that was not addressed. The suspension bushes and coil springs should be checked for signs of wear or damage, as excessive movement or noise could indicate underlying issues. The wiper blades should also be inspected, as the 2025 failure suggests they may need regular replacement.
