2017 Volkswagen Scirocco 2.0L Diesel · DA17 HAO

The Volkswagen Scirocco presents as roadworthy following the most recent MOT pass on 11 February 2026 at 106,486 miles, with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend reads as stable across the available history, though the test immediately prior on 28 January 2026 produced a fail at 106,371 miles with no defects listed, a pattern consistent with administrative or documentation issues at the testing station rather than a mechanical fault. No advisories or wear items appear at any stage, which suggests the vehicle has not entered a worsening condition cycle. Mileage progression sits close to typical use for a nine-year-old car. The record shows 44,521 miles in October 2021, rising to 65,617 by February 2023, then 85,619 in June 2024, and 106,486 by February 2026. That equates to roughly 11,800 miles per year and reflects steady private or light commercial use rather than standing periods or aggressive accumulation. A gap exists between the October 2021 and February 2023 entries spanning over fifteen months, yet the intervening mileage of around 21,000 miles remains proportionate and shows no abrupt spike. The clean MOT sheet gives the buyer little to chase on paper, but the unexplained January 2026 failure warrants a check of the VTS and failure reason with the seller, since DVSA data here logs no defects. In person, the buyer should still verify suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc thickness, as these items draw no advisories only when within tolerance on the day. At 106,000 miles the drivetrain mounts and exhaust emissions system merit a visual inspection for corrosion or leakage. Previous keepers appear to have maintained the car to pass standard with no skipped tests or recurring consumable neglect such as tyre tread or wiper blades. The buyer should obtain service records to confirm fluid changes and cambelt interval, as the MOT alone cannot evidence such upkeep on a high-mileage turbo petrol unit.
