2017 Volkswagen Golf 1.5L Petrol · AF67 TVT

The vehicle remains roadworthy, having passed its most recent inspection in October 2025 at 71,209 miles. The maintenance trend shows a stable progression of minor component wear rather than acute mechanical failure. While the car consistently passes without failures, the presence of recurring advisories indicates that certain components are reaching the end of their operational life and require proactive attention to prevent future MOT de-certifications. The mileage profile is remarkably consistent for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 7,900 miles per year over nine years. This low usage suggests the car has not been subjected to heavy motorway stress, which generally benefits the drivetrain and engine internal components. The record shows regular intervals between tests, with a 9,100-mile gap between September 2021 and 2022, and another 8,800-mile gap between 2022 and 2023. This steady accumulation reflects a predictable usage pattern rather than long periods of stationary- neglect. A buyer should prioritize an inspection of the nearside front and rear shock absorbers, as light misting of oil has been noted since 2022 at 45,114 miles. This condition has persisted for over 26,000 miles, suggesting the seals are beginning to fail and will eventually lead to a functional leak. Additionally, the rear brake discs were flagged for pitting and scoring in 2023 at 53,983 miles. You should verify if these discs were replaced since then, as surface corrosion on low-mileage vehicles can affect braking performance and aesthetics if left untreated.
