2017 Volkswagen Golf 1.4L Petrol · FN17 ACX

This Volkswagen Golf presents an exceptionally clean MOT history, indicating a stable and high standard of maintenance. The most recent test on 21 August 2025 at 66,172 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to 2022, suggesting the vehicle has been kept in a roadworthy condition without the emergence of chronic mechanical issues. The mileage accumulation is consistent and typical for a nine year old vehicle. The odometer rose from 45,904 miles in September 2022 to 66,172 miles by August 2025, averaging roughly 6,700 miles per year over this period. There are no erratic jumps in mileage or long periods of inactivity that would suggest neglect or abnormal usage patterns. The record shows a failure on 14 September 2024 at 59,951 miles, though the vehicle passed on the same day with no defects listed. This likely indicates a minor administrative error or a trivial defect rectified immediately on site. The absence of any advisories regarding suspension bushes, brake disc corrosion, or tyre tread over the last five tests is unusual for a car of this age and implies a proactive approach to consumable replacement. A physical inspection should still focus on common wear items not always captured in a pass, such as the condition of the cabin filters and oil service intervals. Given the lack of flagged structural rust or suspension wear in the DVSA data, a buyer should primarily verify that the service history aligns with the clean MOT record to ensure the engine and drivetrain have received the same attention as the chassis and safety components.
