2017 Volkswagen UP 1.0L Petrol · FL17 TPO

The 2017 Volkswagen Up presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 27 February 2026 at 42,940 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean results across the prior four years. Mileage sits low for a nine-year-old vehicle at 42,940 recorded miles, averaging roughly 4,771 miles per year. The records show steady, light use: 25,055 miles on 11 March 2022, rising to 29,907 by 10 March 2023, 31,901 on 1 March 2024, 40,663 on 7 March 2025, and 42,940 on 27 February 2026. No abrupt accumulation or standing gaps appear. The DVSA data is sparse in faults, with every entry listing no advisories or defects. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the car's age and likely periods of inactivity. Low annual mileage often masks perished rubber components and surface corrosion that a static MOT bay check may not expose. The clean history implies the previous keeper maintained basic upkeep and avoided neglect, yet no recorded advisories mean worn tyres or binding calipers could develop unnoticed.
