AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 3 July 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2009 Volkswagen Sharan has 25 MOT tests on record with a 64% pass rate and 210,119 miles. This, combined with a 2019-12-04 failure for an Engine MIL fault and a 2018-12-06 advisory for worn brake discs, makes this vehicle a high-risk purchase.

A critical mileage anomaly exists: 127,780 miles in Feb 2015, then only 13,405 miles in Aug 2015, followed by a massive jump to 284,707 miles by Feb 2016, indicating possible odometer tampering.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: Odometer fraud signal: Mileage decreased between Feb 2015 (127,780 mi) and Aug 2015 (13,405 mi) — possible odometer tamperi
  • AUTO-FLAGGED: 3 test failures within 12 months (Aug 2015 – Aug 2016)
  • Mileage decreased significantly between Feb 2015 (127,780 mi) and Aug 2015 (13,405 mi), a strong odometer fraud indicator.
  • Failed 2019-12-04 for Engine MIL inoperative or malfunction, a serious safety-critical defect.

Working in its favour

  • Passed 2 of 3 MOT tests, showing some maintenance has been carried out.
  • No recent MOT failures or advisories since the 2019-12-04 test.
  • Fleet MOT pass rate of 83.3% is above the national average for reliability.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 4/5 stars indicates a generally safe vehicle.
