2021 Volkswagen T-Cross 1.0L Petrol · RF21 SVD

This Volkswagen T-Cross presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 2 May 2025 at 21,473 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a similarly clean result from the 27 June 2024 test, indicating the vehicle has maintained a high standard of mechanical integrity over its first few years of service. The mileage is notably low for a five year old vehicle, averaging roughly 4,295 miles per year. Between June 2024 and May 2025, the car covered 4,769 miles, showing consistent but light usage. Such low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and suspension components, though it can occasionally lead to issues with perished rubber seals or battery degradation if the car spent long periods stationary. The absence of any recorded faults, advisories, or failures across the MOT history suggests a diligent approach to upkeep by the previous owner. There are no recurring trends regarding brake disc corrosion, suspension bush wear, or exhaust emissions to flag. The record shows no evidence of structural rust or failures related to the chassis. A physical inspection should focus on consumables that degrade with age regardless of mileage. Check the tyre sidewalls for cracking and verify the brake fluid condition, as low-mileage vehicles often exceed service intervals based on time rather than distance. Ensure the battery holds a strong charge and check for any signs of seizing in the brake calipers due to infrequent heavy use.
