It failed its MOT on 11 July 2026 (nearside front headlamp aim projected beam image is obviously incorrect; nearside front headlamp has a product on the lens so that the light output is severely reduced; offside front headlamp has a product on the lens so that the light output is severely reduced) and passed 25 days later, on 5 August 2026.

There were no advisories at the latest test.

Mileage at that test: 52,205 miles, which matches the advertised 53,000 miles.

Advertised mileage is about 24,400 miles lower than the median mileage of a 2013 Volkswagen Golf on AskCar.
