2022 Volkswagen T-Cross 1.0L Petrol · LP71 ACO

The vehicle remains roadworthy, with the most recent MOT on 19 January 2026 at 24,617 miles recorded as a pass and no defects noted. The maintenance record shows a stable trend, as the previous test on 15 January 2025 also passed without advisories, indicating no deterioration in the intervening year. Mileage has risen from 18,387 miles at the 2025 test to 24,617 miles at the 2026 test, an increase of roughly 6,200 miles in twelve months. Over four years the total of 24,617 miles translates to about 6,150 miles per annum, well within typical usage for a 2022 model. No significant gaps or spikes appear in the record, suggesting consistent, moderate use rather than periods of heavy loading or prolonged storage. A prospective buyer should verify the condition of consumable wear items that the MOT did not flag. Inspect tyre tread depth and sidewall integrity, as mileage accumulation can conceal uneven wear. Examine brake pads and discs for thickness and any scoring, ensuring that the calipers operate without binding. Check suspension components, particularly the front and rear bushes and coil springs, for signs of leakage or excessive play. A visual survey of the under‑body for corrosion, especially around the wheel arches and chassis rails, will confirm the absence of structural rust that the MOT might have missed. Finally, confirm that all lighting, exhaust emissions, and steering linkages function correctly during a test drive. While the MOT history shows no recurring faults, a hands‑on inspection of these systems will provide confidence that the vehicle’s mechanical health aligns with its clean MOT record.
