2017 Volkswagen Golf 1.0L Petrol · DS09 CAL

The most recent MOT on 16 April 2026 at 73,914 miles recorded a pass with no defects, confirming that the vehicle remains roadworthy as of the latest test. The maintenance record shows a stable trend, with only two minor non‑structural faults — a tyre tread deficiency in April 2024 and a headlamp aim issue in March 2022 — both of which were corrected before subsequent testing. The mileage progression from 20,906 miles in October 2020 to 73,914 miles in April 2026 averages about 8,200 miles per year, aligning with typical usage for a nine‑year‑old model. Annual testing intervals are regular, and the only notable gap is the dual entry on 11 April 2024, reflecting a retest after the tyre tread repair rather than a period of neglect. A buyer should therefore inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear or binding, examine the brake discs, pads and calipers for corrosion or uneven wear, and verify the condition of the exhaust system and structural integrity of the chassis and wheel arches. Particular attention to tyre condition, headlamp alignment and any previous advisories on structural rust will help assess whether the vehicle’s upkeep has been consistently maintained.
