2013 Volkswagen Scirocco 1.4L Petrol · GV13 MHM

This Volkswagen Scirocco is in a stable and highly unusual state of roadworthiness for its age. The most recent MOT on 28 January 2026 at 126,836 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This continues a five-year trend of clean passes, with no advisories flagged in any test dating back to January 2022. Such a consistent record suggests a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard or has undergone proactive servicing to preempt common failure points. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical usage for a thirteen-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 9,757 miles per year. The distance covered between tests has remained steady, with a notable increase between January 2022 at 96,989 miles and January 2023 at 105,759 miles. The most recent interval from January 2025 to January 2026 saw the odometer rise by 8,404 miles. There are no erratic jumps or long periods of dormancy that would suggest neglect or hidden deterioration. While the MOT history is exceptionally clean, the absence of any advisories over five years is rare for a car of this vintage. A buyer should still physically inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these components naturally degrade over 126,000 miles regardless of test outcomes. Checking for signs of corrosion on the chassis and sills is necessary, as some testers are less stringent on surface rust that does not yet compromise structural integrity. Given the lack of recorded faults, focus your inspection on the drivetrain and consumables. Verify the condition of the brake discs and pads to ensure they are not nearing the end of their service life. A road test should confirm the absence of clutch slip or gearbox hesitation, as these mechanical wear items are not always captured during a standard MOT unless they cause a direct safety failure.
