This 2017 Volkswagen has 9 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 33,957 miles. However, a significant 2022 service gap and a history of tyre failures warrant careful consideration.
The vehicle shows consistent, low annual mileage averaging 7,414 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating normal usage.
Things to check
- 2022 MOT gap: No MOT recorded between Mar 2023 and Feb 2024, suggesting a period of off-road use or SORN.
- Tyre failures: Major tyre defects in Jul 2021 and Jul 2021, indicating a history of poor tyre maintenance.
- Lights: Major light failures in Sep 2020 and Jul 2021, suggesting a pattern of electrical or lighting issues.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
- Valid MOT until March 2027: Offers peace of mind for over 3 years of roadworthiness.
- Consistent, low mileage: Average 7,414 miles/year is well below UK average, suggesting light use.
- No recurring major failures: While there were failures, no single system has failed repeatedly.
