2016 Volkswagen Golf 2.0L Diesel · YE16 HCY

The 2016 Volkswagen Golf presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 23 July 2025 at 91,265 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the vehicle carries a clean advisory history across all five available MOT entries. Annual mileage averages 9,126 miles, consistent with typical use for a ten-year-old car. The records show steady accumulation: 60,782 miles in September 2021, 70,077 in August 2022, 81,621 in July 2023, 87,825 in August 2024, and 91,265 in July 2025. No gaps exceed thirteen months and no sudden jumps appear. The DVSA data is sparse on faults, with every test returning a pass and zero advisories on tyres, brakes, suspension bushes, exhaust emissions, or corrosion. A clean MOT run of this length suggests the previous owner kept basic upkeep current, though it does not confirm component condition beneath the test threshold. The absence of flagged wear means no recurring mechanical or structural trend is visible in the official record. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of brake discs, coil springs, and underbody structural integrity, as MOT passes at low advisory levels can miss early fatigue. Verify service history to confirm cambelt and fluid intervals were met alongside the recorded mileage.
