2022 Volkswagen T-ROC Life TSI 1.0L Petrol · WK72 VRJ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a pass on November 11, 2025 at 57,066 miles. However, the maintenance history reveals a trend of reactive rather than proactive care. The failure just four days prior at 57,064 miles highlighted significant issues including a split EVAP fuel pipe and tyres below the legal tread limit. While the mechanical fault was rectified to secure the pass, the presence of multiple worn tyres suggests the owner neglected basic consumable maintenance until a formal test intervened. At 57,066 miles over four years, this T-Roc has covered an average of 14,266 miles per annum. This is considerably above the national average for a petrol car, which accelerates the wear on suspension components, brake assemblies, and drivetrain elements. The short interval between the failure and the pass in November 2025 indicates the vehicle was driven while possessing known safety defects, specifically the damaged fuel pipe which posed a fire risk and emission failure. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the rear suspension and alignment. The MOT record noted the offside rear tyre was worn on the edge, which often points to tracking geometry issues, worn bushes, or shock absorbers. Given the high mileage, the brake discs and calipers should be checked for uneven wear or thinning. Additionally, the repair to the EVAP pipe should be visually verified to ensure a secure fitment with no signs of subsequent vapour leaks or degradation in the engine bay.
