2015 Volkswagen Beetle 1.2L Petrol · WD65 ACF

The 2026‑05‑07 MOT passed the 2015 Volkswagen Beetle with only minor defects, confirming that the vehicle remains roadworthy and that the maintenance record shows a stable trend with no worsening faults. Mileage has risen from 30,445 miles in May 2018 to 78,759 miles in May 2026, an average annual increase of about 7,160 miles, which aligns with typical usage for an 11‑year‑old car and shows no large gaps in the testing schedule. The only failure recorded was a 2021 test at 44,085 miles where rear fog and registration plate lamps were inoperative; subsequent tests have shown no further serious faults, indicating that the issues were rectified and the vehicle has been maintained regularly. A buyer should therefore examine the rear sub‑frame and lower suspension arms for the extent of corrosion that may compromise structural integrity, inspect the rear tyre for edge wear close to the legal limit, verify the condition of the rear brakes and discs for any binding or excessive wear, and confirm that the rear fog lamp and registration plate lamp operate correctly; the front tyres, noted as worn near the limit in 2018, should also be assessed for remaining tread depth.
