2017 Volkswagen Scirocco 2.0L Petrol · CF17 WXK

This 2017 Volkswagen Scirocco has a very low mileage profile, having covered only 37,829 miles in roughly nine years. This averages out to about 4,200 miles per year, which is significantly lower than the UK average. While low mileage often suggests less mechanical wear on the engine and drivetrain, it can also imply the car has spent long periods stationary, which can lead to age-related issues like perished rubber or corrosion. The MOT history shows a clear trend of worsening maintenance standards or increasing age-related degradation. While the 2022 test was completely clean, subsequent years have seen a steady rise in advisory items. You are seeing a recurring pattern of tyre issues, including uneven wear, cuts, and perishing, alongside brake pad wear. The most recent MOT in May 2026 has introduced a more serious structural concern regarding corrosion on both rear coil springs. The vehicle's condition trend appears to be moving from a clean state toward more frequent failures of consumables and components. The shift from simple tyre and brake pad advisories to structural corrosion on the suspension suggests that age-related decay is beginning to outpace the benefits of the low mileage. Before purchasing, you must inspect the underside of the vehicle to assess the extent of the corrosion on the rear coil springs and check for any further rust on other suspension components.
