2015 Volkswagen Passat 2.0L Diesel · AE08 DON

The 2015 Volkswagen Passat presents a clean roadworthiness status. The most recent test on 30 June 2025 at 84,660 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable across the full five-year MOT span, with every annual examination from 2021 through 2025 achieving a pass and no advisories raised at any stage. Annual mileage sits at a typical level for an eleven-year-old car. The record shows 63,878 miles in June 2021, rising to 67,555 by June 2022, 72,715 in June 2023, 79,556 in July 2024, and 84,660 in June 2025. That equates to roughly 5,000 to 7,000 miles per year with no sudden accumulation or standing gaps. The DVSA data is sparse in faults but consistent, which suggests the previous keeper kept basic upkeep current. No tester flagged suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, binding calipers, corrosion, or exhaust emissions across the history. A clean sheet over five tests implies no recurring mechanical or structural trend requiring correction. The absence of advisories points to a car that has not neglected consumables such as tyres or wiper blades at test time. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection beneath the sills and subframe for structural rust not caught in a lift-free test bay. Verify real brake disc thickness and suspension arm condition at 84,660 miles, since wear develops between annual tests. The MOT record alone confirms legal roadworthiness, not component life remaining.
