2009 Volkswagen Passat 2.0L Diesel · AD09 SDX

The 2009 Volkswagen Passat presents a currently roadworthy status following a pass at 110,994 miles on 6 April 2025. The maintenance trend appears stable with no advisories or defects logged across the five recorded tests from 2022 to 2025. A minor anomaly occurred on 3 April 2025 when the vehicle failed at 110,494 miles with no defects recorded, then passed three days later at 110,994 miles, indicating an administrative or non-mechanical rejection rather than a genuine fault. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a 17-year-old car, averaging roughly 6,500 miles per year. The record shows 88,277 miles on 8 August 2022, rising to 94,220 by 29 June 2023, 103,294 by 1 July 2024, and 110,494 to 110,994 across April 2025. The step from 2022 to 2023 covers under 6,000 miles in ten months, while later years hold near 9,000 annually. No long dormant periods or abrupt accumulation spikes appear in the data. The history is sparse and clean, with no corrosion, suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions issues ever flagged. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion given the vehicle's age and the MOT's limited scope on hidden rust. The tester never noted worn coil springs, binding calipers, or tyre tread limits, so consumable wear remains undocumented rather than confirmed absent. Verify the April 2025 fail reason through DVSA channels, as the zero-defect failure suggests a documentation error or missed test item not visible in the summary.
