2018 Volkswagen T-ROC 1.5L Petrol · HV18 NKC

The 2018 Volkswagen T-Roc presents a clean roadworthiness status. The most recent test on 16 March 2026 at 35,467 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded. Across the full five-year MOT span from March 2022 to March 2026, the vehicle passed every test with zero advisories or faults. The maintenance trend is stable and shows no worsening or recurring mechanical concerns. Annual mileage sits well below typical use for an eight-year-old car. The tester logged 26,107 miles in March 2022, rising to 27,911 by March 2023, 30,523 by March 2024, 32,835 by February 2025, and 35,467 by March 2026. That equates to roughly 2,300 miles added per year, or about 4,433 miles per annum overall. No gaps or sudden accumulation appear in the record. The sparse, fault-free history suggests the previous keeper used the car lightly and kept it to a basic annual test schedule without deferred work surfacing. A buyer should still arrange a physical inspection despite the unblemished MOT trail. Low mileage and long stationary periods can hide perished suspension bushes, flat-spotted tyres, or corroding brake discs and calipers that a pass test will not always flag. Check underside structural integrity for rust, confirm the coil springs are crack-free, and verify the exhaust emissions remain within limits under load. Given the clean record and gentle use, the T-Roc shows as a low-risk purchase on paper. Prior owner care looks consistent rather than neglected. A pre-purchase mechanical check remains sensible to catch age-related wear the MOT did not record.
