2006 Volkswagen EOS 2.0L Petrol · T15 TBL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy based on the March 2026 test, although the inspection flagged several areas requiring attention. The maintenance history demonstrates a stable pattern of passing MOT tests, with no evidence of a worsening mechanical trend. The most recent issues relate to the condition of the tyres and a specific advisory regarding play in the steering rack inner joint(s). Mileage accumulation is consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging approximately 6,600 miles per year. The record shows a steady progression from 105,247 miles in March 2023 to 132,271 miles in March 2026. The failure recorded in March 2025 was solely due to offside front tyre tread depth, indicating that consumable wear is occurring predictably rather than a sudden mechanical breakdown. Buyers should specifically inspect the suspension system, focusing on the nearside and offside front suspension arm pins and bushes, as these components were noted as worn in the 2023 test. Furthermore, the steering rack inner joint(s) should be checked for excessive play, as this was flagged in the most recent inspection. While the record does not indicate structural corrosion or serious drivetrain faults, the recurring tyre wear issues suggest that basic consumable upkeep has been maintained, but regular replacement of tyres should be planned. A thorough physical inspection of all suspension bushes and steering components is recommended before purchase.
