2016 Volkswagen Golf 2.0L Diesel · GK16 BLF

The most recent MOT on 24 November 2025 recorded a pass at 91,525 miles with no defects noted, indicating that the vehicle remains roadworthy and that the maintenance trend appears stable rather than deteriorating. Mileage has risen from 58,835 miles in November 2022 to 91,525 miles in November 2025, an average of roughly 9,200 miles per year. The incremental increases between each annual test – 58,835 miles (2022), 73,919 miles (2023), 84,986 miles (2024) and 91,525 miles (2025) – show a consistent usage pattern with no sudden spikes or prolonged periods of inactivity. The duplicate entry on 25 November 2024, where a failure was recorded without any defect listed, appears to be a clerical anomaly rather than evidence of recurring mechanical issues. A prospective buyer should verify the condition of consumables that are not captured by the MOT records. Inspect tyre tread depth and sidewall integrity, as wear may exceed the legal minimum despite the clean MOT history. Examine brake discs and pads for uneven wear or glazing, and check that the calipers operate without binding. Assess suspension components – particularly the front and rear bushes and coil springs – for any signs of fatigue or leakage. A visual inspection of the under‑body for corrosion, especially around wheel arches and chassis joints, will confirm the absence of structural rust that the MOT would have flagged if severe. Finally, confirm that the exhaust system is intact and that the vehicle meets emissions standards, completing a thorough on‑site appraisal.
