Our Verdict
This is a relatively modern, low-mileage
When viewing this specific 1.5L petrol T-Roc, ensure you check the full service history to confirm that oil changes have been performed according to Volkswagen's intervals. Because the most recent MOT noted a nearside rear tyre that was worn close to the legal limit and showing signs of cracking, you should inspect the remaining three tyres to see if they are approaching a similar state of wear or age-related degradation.
Negotiate on the basis of any immediate maintenance required, such as replacing the tyres or checking brake pad thickness. As this is a 2022 model, also verify if any manufacturer software updates or recalls have been applied to the TSI engine or infotainment systems.
The 1498cc petrol engine is designed for a balance of efficiency and performance, typically placing it in a moderate insurance group. Fuel economy for the Life trim is generally respectable for a small SUV, though actual MPG will depend on driving style and load.
Maintenance costs for Volkswagen vehicles tend to be higher than budget brands but are offset by the model's popularity and parts availability. Expect annual running costs to include standard servicing, tax, and insurance, with the 1.5 TSI engine being relatively well-understood by UK technicians.
Pay close attention to the tyres; the 2025 MOT specifically highlighted a nearside rear tyre with edge wear and cracking. This suggests the vehicle may have experienced uneven tyre wear, so inspect the front tyres and suspension components for signs of misalignment.
Additionally, check the condition of the black paintwork for any significant stone chips or scratches, which are common on SUVs used for motorway driving. Since the mileage is approximately 38,500, check that the interior materials and switchgear show minimal wear consistent with this usage level.
Registered in December 2022, this black Volkswagen T-Roc Life TSI has covered 38,489 miles as of its last MOT in November 2025. The vehicle's history is limited, with only one recorded MOT test which resulted in a pass despite a single tyre-related advisory. Given its age and mileage, it represents a typical used compact SUV profile for the current market.
No aggregate reliability data is currently available for the Volkswagen T-Roc Life TSI to provide a statistical comparison.
