About Volkswagen MOTs
Volkswagen cars generally benefit from strong German engineering, but they aren't immune to MOT failures. The Golf and Polo often pass on structural integrity, but can be let down by suspension wear and emissions faults.
Checking the MOT history of a Volkswagen before buying can reveal recurring advisories, recorded mileage changes and signs that the vehicle may need maintenance.
