2015 Volkswagen Golf 1.6L Diesel · RK15 FLB

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by a clean record across its recent inspections. Following a failure in early January 2023, the Golf has passed three consecutive tests without any recorded defects or advisories. The most recent test conducted on 30 December 2025 at 123,238 miles confirms that the vehicle met all minimum safety and environmental standards at the time of inspection. The mileage progression is consistent with typical usage for an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 11,200 miles per annum. The data shows a steady accumulation of miles, with 14,805 miles driven between the January 2023 and January 2024 tests, and another 19,953 miles between 2024 and December 2025. This regular usage suggests the car has been driven consistently rather than sitting stationary for long periods, which generally benefits the health of mechanical components and braking systems by preventing corrosion-related seizing. While the MOT history is currently clear of mechanical advisories, an in-person inspection should focus on components subject to wear at the 123,000-mile mark. A buyer should verify the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers, as these often degrade significantly at this mileage level. Given the age of the vehicle, checking the underside for structural corrosion on the sills and brake lines is also necessary, as the MOT only identifies rust once it has reached a point of structural compromise.
