2017 Volkswagen Passat 2.0L Diesel · CX67 OYP

The 2017 Volkswagen Passat presents a clean roadworthiness status. The most recent test on 6 January 2026 at 98,582 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the maintenance trend is stable across the full history. Every MOT entry from 2021 through 2026 shows a pass with no advisories or faults raised, which indicates consistent compliance with statutory test standards. Mileage progression tracks close to typical use for a nine-year-old car. The tester logged 25,972 miles on 6 December 2021, then 34,086 on 16 September 2022, 56,241 on 29 September 2023, 85,154 on 31 October 2024, and 98,582 on 6 January 2026. The step from late 2023 to late 2024 added nearly 29,000 miles in thirteen months, a heavier accumulation phase than earlier years, but the annual average of roughly 10,954 miles remains ordinary. The record carries no gaps exceeding fourteen months between tests. No advisories appear for suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, calipers, exhaust emissions, or structural corrosion at any point. Such a clean sheet suggests the previous keepers addressed wear before each test or the car avoided significant mechanical decline. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of underside structural integrity and brake component condition, since MOT passes without advisories do not certify component life remaining. Given the absence of recorded faults, in-person checks should target consumable items the test may not flag late in life, such as tyre tread depth across all four corners and wiper blade condition. The Passat's documented history supports a sound purchase basis, provided a current mechanical appraisal confirms no latent wear outside the DVSA dataset.
