2018 Volkswagen UP 1.0L Petrol · XM61 LON

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a consistently stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test conducted on 11 December 2025 at 23,273 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This completes a clean record across the last five annual inspections, indicating that the vehicle has remained in a condition that meets all safety and environmental standards without mechanical or structural failures flagged by the tester. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,909 miles per year. Between the December 2021 test at 11,345 miles and the December 2025 test at 23,273 miles, the car covered only 11,928 miles. This low usage pattern suggests minimal wear on the drivetrain, engine internal components, and suspension assembly. However, such infrequent use can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components or brake components if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. While the MOT history shows no recurring faults, a buyer should perform a physical inspection of components susceptible to low-mileage storage. Specifically check the tyres for sidewall cracking or flat spotting, as rubber often ages faster than the tread wears down. Examine the brake discs for surface corrosion and ensure the calipers have not seized due to a lack of use. Given the age of the vehicle, also inspect the suspension bushes and split hoses for cracking, though the low mileage suggests these parts are unlikely to have reached their mechanical fatigue limit.
