This 2017 Volkswagen has 8 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 45,238 miles. The vehicle's history shows a consistent, low annual mileage, but the repeated lighting advisories and a major safety system failure warrant a thorough inspection.
The vehicle shows consistent, normal annual mileage averaging 11,223 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating regular and predictable use.
Things to check
- Major failure: Supplementary Restraint System (SRS) warning lamp fault on 2022-06-01.
- Recurring headlamp advisories: Noted on 2020-07-10 and 2022-06-01, indicating a persistent issue.
- Major mirror failure: Offside Front Obligatory mirror insecure on 2022-06-01, a safety-critical component.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
- Consistent, low annual mileage: 45,238 miles in 9 years, well below UK average.
- Valid MOT until 2026-08-04, providing peace of mind for the next two years.
- No recurring major mechanical failures: The 2022 SRS failure was the only major system issue.
