2013 Volkswagen Sharan 2.0L Diesel · PF13 ADV

The vehicle currently maintains a positive roadworthiness status, showing a stable maintenance trend. The most recent inspection conducted on 12 November 2025 at 100,045 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, indicating that the vehicle met all legal safety and emission standards. While a failure occurred on 19 November 2024, the immediate pass the following day suggests the identified issues were minor and rectified promptly without indicating a pattern of mechanical neglect. The mileage profile is consistent with a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,700 miles per year. The record shows steady usage over time, moving from 77,775 miles in October 2022 to 100,045 miles in November 2025. There are no significant gaps in the testing intervals that would suggest long periods of standing. This regular accumulation indicates the vehicle has been used for routine commuting, which is generally beneficial for components like brake seals and tyres that can perish if left stationary. Given the clean reports from the two most recent tests, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on age-related wear rather than high-mileage components. At 100,000 miles, it is vital to inspect the suspension control arm bushes and coil springs for cracking, as these often degrade after a decade regardless of mileage. Check the chassis for corrosion along the sills and rear brake lines, as the MOT does not flag surface rust until it becomes structural. The lack of advisories in the latest record suggests the previous owner has been proactive in addressing consumable wear.
