2022 Volkswagen Golf R-Line TSI 1.5L Petrol · LA71 VKR

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, passing its most recent MOT test on 27 October 2025. The maintenance trend appears stable but reveals a specific lapse in consumable item attention during that test period. While the car initially failed at 20,351 miles due to insufficient tread depth on both front front tyres, the immediate re-pass indicates the owner addressed the issue promptly without any further mechanical or structural defects recorded. The mileage profile is consistently low for a four-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,088 miles per year. Between the November 2024 test at 15,204 miles and the October 2025 test at 20,351 miles, the car covered 5,147 miles. This low usage suggests light annual travel, which typically reduces the wear on the drivetrain and suspension components, though low mileage can sometimes lead to flat-spotting or brake corrosion if the vehicle remains stationary for extended periods. A buyer should physically verify the condition of the tyres to ensure they were replaced with high-quality units following the 2025 failure. Given the low mileage, a close inspection of the brake discs is advisable to check for surface pitting or rust that often occurs with infrequent use. The suspension bushes and coil springs should be checked for signs of cracking, although the MOT record does not flagged any mechanical play or structural integrity issues to date.
