2012 Volkswagen UP 1.0L Petrol · NG12 RVF

The Volkswagen Up presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent DVSA test on 13 August 2025 at 74,933 miles which returned a pass with no defects recorded. Across the four annual examinations from August 2022 to August 2025, the vehicle cleared every test without advisories, indicating consistent upkeep and no escalating mechanical concerns. The mileage pattern reflects light use for a 2012 registered car. The record shows 59,107 miles at the 8 August 2022 test, rising to 61,012 miles by 12 August 2023, then 64,087 miles on 12 August 2024, and 74,933 miles by 13 August 2025. This equates to roughly 5,350 miles per year against the vehicle's age, with the largest single-year jump of nearly 11,000 miles occurring between the 2024 and 2025 tests. The clean history across all dated entries suggests the previous keeper maintained the car to a standard that avoided worn tyres, failing emissions, or corrosion issues. A duplicate entry on 8 August 2022 shows both a fail and a pass at identical mileage of 59,107 with no defects recorded, a clerical anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. Given the absence of flagged suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or structural integrity problems in the official data, the buyer should still commission an independent inspection of underbody corrosion and brake caliper operation, as these items can develop between tests without appearing on the record. Low annual mileage and prolonged standing periods can conceal perished rubber components or flat-spotted tyres not captured by the MOT. The buyer should verify service history and check for fluid degradation, given the car's light use since 2022.
