Our Verdict
This 2012 Volkswagen Jetta Sport TDI S-A is a sensible used buy with a reassuring MOT record. The absence of any failures across five recorded tests makes it a lower-risk diesel saloon than many of its peers.
Given the clean MOT history, focus your negotiation on service records rather than outstanding defects, as the tests show no advisory items or failures to leverage. Ask for proof of timing belt and diesel particulate filter (DPF) maintenance, since the 1968cc TDI engine is a long-life unit but these items are costly if neglected. As no model aggregate data exists, lean on the five consecutive passes and the 58,425-mile gap between the 2018 and 2024 tests to confirm regular use rather than long storage.
As a 1968cc diesel registered in 2012, this Jetta will typically fall into a lower CO2 tax band than equivalent petrol saloons, though exact rates depend on the recorded emissions. Insurance group and fuel economy are not in the provided data, but the 2.0 TDI is generally economical on motorway miles. Estimated annual running costs including fuel, tax, insurance and routine maintenance are around £1,000-£1,300 based on mileage and diesel pricing.
The MOT history shows no failure types to investigate, with only a 2018 note that emissions were too clean to detect and engine cover and undertray were fitted, so physical checks should confirm those covers remain secure. Inspect the DPF and EGR system given the diesel engine and 124,151 miles, as these are common weak points not captured by the passed tests. Verify the automatic transmission (S-A variant) shifts smoothly, since no model data is available and the MOTs do not assess gearbox condition.
The white 1968cc diesel Jetta (KR12ACX) first registered in June 2012 has covered 124,151 miles as of its most recent MOT in March 2024. Every MOT on record between 2018 and 2024 passed with no defects noted, indicating consistent upkeep. With no aggregate model reliability data available, the individual history is the best evidence of condition and it points to a well-maintained example.
No aggregate MOT reliability data is available for the Volkswagen Jetta Sport TDI S-A, so this example's individual history of five passes is the only reliability indicator.
