2022 Volkswagen Golf Life TSI 1.5L Petrol · YC72 ONW

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status following its most recent MOT test on September 29, 2025. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car passed without any mechanical or structural failures. The issues recorded during this test were limited to minor consumable defects on the tyres, indicating that the primary drivetrain and safety systems remained within acceptable operating parameters during the inspection period. At 27,369 miles, the Golf has averaged approximately 6,842 miles per year over its four-year life. This figure aligns with typical low-mileage usage patterns which generally result in less wear on components like suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs. The relatively low mileage suggests the car has not been subjected to heavy motorway stress, though it can sometimes lead to rubber degradation if the vehicle sits for extended periods. A buyer should specifically inspect the rear tyres during a physical viewing. The 2025 test flagged cracking and perishing on both the nearside and offside rear tyres, which suggests the rubber compound is reaching the end of its life due to age despite the low mileage. The presence of a nail in the nearside rear also indicates a lack of proactive attention to basic tyre maintenance. Verify that these tyres have been replaced with fresh rubber to avoid structural failure or loss of traction.
