2017 Volkswagen Golf 1.4L Petrol · FH67 CPY

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT test in February 2026 at 98,072 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend shows a sign of stability, as the car has moved past a period of recurring failures in previous years. The transition from failures to clean passes in recent tests suggests that the previous owner was proactive in addressing identified mechanical issues to ensure the vehicle remained compliant with DVSA standards. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 11,000 miles per year. Between the February 2024 test at 68,113 miles and the February 2025 test at 83,026 miles, the car covered 14,913 miles, followed by another 15,046 miles in the final year leading to the most recent test. This regular usage suggests consistent highway driving rather than long periods of standing, which often helps prevent the internal degradation associated with rubber components and brake seals. While the most recent record is clean, the failures in February 2024 and February 2025 indicate that specific components required immediate attention in the past. A buyer should inspect the current condition of the suspension bushes and brake components, as these are common points of failure on Golfs of this age. Given the vehicle is approaching the 100,000-mile mark, a thorough check for minor oil leaks and the condition of the exhaust system is advisable to ensure the high-mileage usage has not led to significant drivetrain wear.
