2021 Volkswagen ID3 Life Electricity · KY71 XVN

The vehicle presents a relatively stable maintenance history, though the record indicates recurring issues with minor consumable components. In the most recent test on 18 March 2026 at 41,533 miles, the car passed despite being flagged for nearside and offside rear tyres showing damage or perishing, along with a failing windscreen wiper. These findings suggest an ongoing trend of minor exterior wear that was not addressed prior to the inspection. The failure of the wipers in that period indicates that the owner may only perform maintenance in response to MOT requirements rather than following a proactive preventative schedule. At 41,533 miles over five years, the vehicle has averaged approximately 8,300 miles per year. This usage profile aligns with typical expectations for a modern electric vehicle and generally places lower mechanical stress on the drivetrain and braking systems compared to high-mileage counterparts. The mileage gap between 2024 and 2026 shows a consistent progression of roughly 6,700 miles driven between annual intervals, suggesting the car is used regularly enough to avoid the degradation issues often associated with long periods of standing. The failure on 13 March 2025 at 33,962 miles for an illegible rear registration plate is a purely cosmetic and legal compliance issue that does not reflect on mechanical or structural health. Since no structural corrosion, brake binding, or suspension-related failures have been recorded across the three-year history, the fundamental integrity of the ID.3 appears sound. A buyer should still verify the current condition of the rear tyres and wiper blades upon inspection, as these were the primary points of concern in the most recent report.
