2007 Volkswagen Eos: petrol or diesel?

Petrol, diesel and hybrid versions go wrong in different ways, so each has its own figures from the MOTs these cars had during 2023–2025. Pick the one you’re looking at: the fuel is on the logbook and in the car’s MOT history.

Petrol 60% pass first time (all 2007 cars: 57%) Stands out: drive shaft (cv) joints 1.8×, link ball joint covers 2.1×, side repeaters 2.9× 4,704 MOTsSee the petrol guide › Diesel 59% pass first time (all 2007 cars: 57%) Stands out: drive shaft (cv) joints 2.4×, suspension arm bushes and joints 1.7×, link ball joint covers 2.2× 3,847 MOTsSee the diesel guide ›

Hybrid versions had too few MOTs for figures of their own, or weren’t sold.
