Description
2013 Volkswagen Sharan 2.0 TDI S DSG, 7 seats, silver, tow bar NO MOT, SOLD AS SEEN
Read this whole ad before enquiring. I would rather lose a buyer than surprise one.
It failed its MOT on 16 July 2026 at SGBVS Ltd, Patchway, Bristol (VT30 refusal) at 119,745 miles. The old certificate ran to 31 August 2026 and tax is due 1 September, so it is now off the road. Buyer collects on a trailer or by recovery. I am not taxing or MOTing it before sale, and I am not going to pretend it is a five-minute job.
The honest bit: it drives well. Nothing on the fail sheet is engine or transmission it is bulbs, a bush, a wiper and a warning light. But the engine management light is on and I believe iot is a sensor in the ad blue system.
MOT failures
Offside side repeater not working; offside door mirror damaged and taped, needs stripping to change the bulb
Both registration plate lamps inoperative
Engine MIL inoperative or indicating a fault engine light on, stop/start not working, bulb warning showing
Front wiper does not clear the screen properly
Nearside front lower suspension arm rear bush excessively worn
Trailer 13-pin socket failed on the sheet tester hand-wrote that the pins were cleaned and it then worked, but it is on the sheet so treat it as a fail until re-tested
Advisories
Bushes worn or close to failure: both rear trailing arms, both rear front-arm inner, NS front lower front, OS front lower rear
Rear coil springs lightly corroded, both sides
NS rear tyre close to the legal limit smooth inner edge, feathering, cracked and perished
Both front tyres worn on the edges
Front pad wear sensor not connected
Cosmetics. Scratches on both rear wheel arches. Otherwise a tidy, honest car for the age and mileage.
Spec. 2.0 TDI diesel, 1968cc, 6-speed DSG semi-auto, 142bhp, 5 doors, 7 seats, silver, first registered March 2013, 149 g/km. Tow bar fitted. VIN WVWZZZ7NZDV026321.
Paperwork. I have the VT30 refusal sheet and the MOT test invoice, and will send photographs of both to anyone who asks including the advisories. No surprises on collection.
