2016 Volkswagen Sharan 2.0L Diesel · SH16 YFG

The 2016 Volkswagen Sharan recorded at 198,057 miles passed its latest MOT on 8 June 2026 with no defects noted, signalling a stable roadworthiness status. The record shows only isolated minor faults that were corrected on subsequent tests, and no pattern of worsening issues emerges. The vehicle accumulated roughly 19,800 miles per year over ten years, with mileage rising steadily from 62,663 miles in December 2020 to 198,057 miles by June 2026. Gaps between tests are typically six months, and the jump from 138,684 miles in October 2023 to 161,463 miles in April 2024 reflects regular use rather than long standing periods. Recurring items include a frayed off‑side rear seat‑belt webbing noted in October 2025, slight play in the front lower suspension arm ball joint recorded in April 2025, and a failed off‑side front position lamp in October 2023. Earlier failures involved near‑side rear tyre wear close to the legal limit and exposed cords on the off‑side rear tyre in June 2021, both of which were remedied before the next test. A buyer should therefore verify the condition of the suspension bushings and ball joints, inspect the seat‑belt webbing for continued integrity, confirm that all exterior lamps function, and examine tyre tread depth and sidewall condition for any remaining exposed cords. A visual check for structural rust around the chassis and wheel arches is also advisable, as is a brake‑system check for binding calipers or uneven disc wear.
