What most often fails on a Volkswagen Golf at its MOT
Across 875,902 Volkswagen Golf MOT tests in 2025 (all versions together), these defects turned up most often.
- Coil spring: fractured or broken. On 2.9% of Volkswagen Golf tests.
- Tyre tread below the 1.6mm legal minimum. On 2.2% of Volkswagen Golf tests.
- Shock absorber with a serious fluid leak. On 1.9% of Volkswagen Golf tests, 2.0 times the rate for cars of the same age.
The MOT checks safety and emissions items, not the engine, clutch or gearbox, so this is one measure of how each car holds up rather than a full reliability verdict. These figures describe the model, all its versions together, not this particular car.

What this car costs to run
Modelled over 7,100 miles a year (DfT National Travel Survey, England). Ranges, not quotes — every figure here is an estimate.
- Vehicle tax (VED)Registered in 2017. A car first registered on or after 1 April 2017 pays the £200 standard rate; one registered January–March 2017 pays its CO2 band instead, which depends on its CO2 figure (not on the advert): from £20 up to £790. The first-registration date and the CO2 figure are on the V5C — ask the dealer. The rates by CO2 are in GOV.UK's vehicle tax band table
- Depends on CO2

- £1,200–£1,650
- Insurance (UK average)The UK average premium actually paid for comprehensive cover, £566 in Q2 2026 (ABI) — an average across every driver, postcode and car, not a quote for this one. Yours turns on your age, postcode and record and on the car’s insurance group. A 17–20-year-old new driver typically pays more than this average: see our guide to the cheapest cars to insure as a new driver, or the ABI figures
- £566
- ServicingFrom a minor service (£200–£320) to a major one (£400–£700) on a Volkswagen, from Autoza's own servicing estimates by make, not survey data. Routine servicing only — excludes repairs and tyres
- £200–£700
- MOT test£54.85 maximum in Great Britain — the DVSA cap, and many garages charge less — with the first test on the third anniversary of registration. DVSA: 27.51% of car and light-van MOTs in Great Britain failed their initial test in 2025/26, and repairs are extra
