2017 Volkswagen Golf 2.0L Petrol · CV66 WCG

The Volkswagen Golf presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 5 August 2025 at 48,193 miles passed with no defects recorded, following a clean pass on 4 March 2025 at 45,430 miles. Across the available history the vehicle shows no advisories or mechanical faults, indicating consistent compliance with MOT standards rather than a worsening or recurring defect pattern. The recorded mileage of 48,193 at nine years of age equates to roughly 5,355 miles per year, which is low for a 2017 hatchback. The record shows steady, light use: 34,237 miles on 12 January 2023, 39,666 on 5 March 2024, 45,430 on 4 March 2025, and 48,193 by August 2025. A failed test on 5 March 2024 at 39,666 miles carries no listed defect, with a pass logged the same day, suggesting an administrative or emissions-retest issue rather than a mechanical fault. No long standing gaps or sudden accumulation appear in the data. Low mileage combined with a clean MOT history implies the previous keeper used the car sparingly and kept basic upkeep current. Standing time can age tyres, brake discs, and suspension bushes even without high wear. A buyer should still confirm in person that the tyres show no sidewall cracking, the brake discs are free of corrosion pitting, and the suspension bushes are not perished from inactivity. No structural corrosion, exhaust, or drivetrain concerns appear in the official record. The absence of advisories across five tests supports a sound roadworthiness verdict, but a physical inspection remains prudent given the car's low-use profile.
