2012 Volkswagen Scirocco 2.0L Diesel · SK02 ASH

This Volkswagen Scirocco presents an exceptionally stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 27 January 2026 at 153,641 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to March 2022, suggesting a vehicle that has been kept in a roadworthy state without the recurring failures often seen in cars of this vintage. The mileage accumulation is steady and aligns with typical usage for a fourteen year old vehicle. Between the March 2022 test at 134,009 miles and the January 2026 test at 153,641 miles, the car covered 19,632 miles over roughly four years. A notable period of low usage occurred between March 2023 and January 2024, where the odometer moved only 108 miles from 141,494 to 141,602. Despite the clean MOT record, the high total mileage necessitates a physical inspection of high-wear components. The absence of flagged defects does not mean parts are new; it only means they met the minimum legal threshold. A buyer should check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these typically degrade by 150,000 miles regardless of test outcomes. Attention should also be paid to the brake discs and pads for thinning, as well as the engine mounts and gearbox mounts for perished rubber. While the record shows no structural corrosion or exhaust emissions failures, a manual check for underbody rust is advised given the vehicle's age. The lack of advisories over the last five years suggests a disciplined approach to maintenance by the previous owners.
