2017 Volkswagen Golf 2.0L Diesel · BY62 CFC

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness based on a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 20 August 2025 at 86,406 miles passed with no recorded defects or advisories. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the previous owners have proactively addressed any mechanical or safety issues before they reached a point of failure during the annual DVSA inspections. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,600 miles per annum. Between the August 2021 test and the August 2025 test, the car covered 44,543 miles, showing a steady and predictable usage pattern rather than erratic bursts of driving or long periods of neglect. The intervals between tests remain regular, typically falling in late August or early September, suggesting a routine approach to servicing that often correlates with the mechanical health of the drivetrain and electronic systems. While the digital record shows no recurring advisories regarding structural corrosion or brake components, a physical inspection should still focus on high-wear items prone to fatigue at the 90,000-mile mark. Check the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers, as these often do not trigger a failure until they show significant degradation. Additionally, examine the brake discs for thinning or uneven wear and ensure the tyres are not mismatched, as the MOT history only reflects the state of the vehicle at the specific moments of the annual tests.
