2019 Volkswagen Sharan 1.4L Petrol · ML19 BJJ

The vehicle is currently in a roadworthy condition, having passed its most recent MOT in May 2026 with 42,771 miles and no recorded defects. The maintenance trend shows significant improvement following a specific failure in early 2024. Since that point, the vehicle has undergone two consecutive clean tests, indicating that the previous owner addressed the immediate safety concerns and maintained standards. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-use family vehicle, averaging approximately 6,100 miles per year. The data shows a steady accumulation, moving from 22,115 miles in April 2023 to 36,054 miles in April 2025, and reaching 42,771 miles by the latest test. This low annual mileage generally suggests less wear on heavy-duty drivetrain components, such as the clutch and gearbox, compared to high-mileage examples of the same age. The failure in April 2024 at 29,356 miles highlights a lapse in basic maintenance, as the front brake pads were below the 1.5mm limit and both front tyres were below the legal tread depth. While these were rectified to achieve a pass on the same day, a buyer should inspect the current state of the front tyres and pads to ensure they have not worn prematurely again. Given the low mileage, the inspector should also check for flat spotting on tyres or perished rubber suspension bushes, which can occur on vehicles that sit for long periods between uses.
