2020 Volkswagen T-ROC 1.5L Petrol · RO20 NDN

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a clean MOT pass on July 26, 2025, 91,085 miles. This represents a significant improvement in maintenance standards compared to the previous year where multiple defects were present. While the history shows a reactive maintenance pattern, the lack of defects in the most recent test suggests the current owner has addressed the mechanical and visibility issues that previously caused failures. At 91,085 miles over six years, this T-roc has covered an average of over 15,000 miles per annum. This is above the national average and places higher, accelerated stress on wear-related components. Between March 2023 at 56,354 miles and March 2024 at 76,134 miles, the vehicle covered 20k miles in a single year. This high mileage indicates consistent heavy use, which explains the rapid degradation of consumables like the braking system and wiper blades. A buyer should focus specifically on the braking system during a physical inspection. The March 2024 failure highlighted significant wear across all four brake discs and thin rear pads. Although the vehicle passed in July 2025, the high-mileage profile suggests these components may be nearing the end of their service life again. Check for uneven pad wear or any signs of binding calipers. The tyre pressure monitoring system, which was flagged as inoperative in 2024, should be verified to ensure the sensor was properly repaired or replaced. The recurring failures regarding the windscreen wipers in 2023 and 2024 suggest a history of neglecting basic maintenance until an MOT deadline looms. Given the high mileage, a thorough check of the suspension bushes and coil springs is necessary, as these often show fatigue on high-use vehicles. There are no structural corrosion issues recorded in the history, but the mechanical state of the vehicle demands a robust service history to ensure the drivetrain has not suffered from the same neglectful intervals.
