2009 Volkswagen Golf 2.0L Diesel · OO07 JVR

This vehicle presents an exceptionally stable roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 24 March 2026 at 123,821 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent five year trend of clean passes, indicating a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard without the typical degradation seen in cars of this vintage. The mileage pattern is consistent with the age of the car, averaging roughly 7,284 miles per year. The distance covered between tests has remained steady, with a notable increase between March 2022 and March 2023 where the vehicle covered 10,890 miles. More recent intervals have seen a slight decrease in annual usage, with 4,485 miles added between March 2025 and March 2026. The total absence of advisories over the last five years is unusual for a 2009 model. The tester flagged no issues with suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions across all entries from 91,388 miles in 2022 to the current reading. This suggests a proactive approach to maintenance where consumables were likely replaced before they reached a failure threshold. A buyer should still perform a physical inspection of the chassis and sills for surface corrosion, as MOT testers often overlook minor rust that does not compromise structural integrity. Given the clean record, focus should remain on checking the service history for evidence of cambelt and water pump replacements, as these are critical timed components not covered by a standard MOT test.
