2014 Volkswagen Golf 1.6L Diesel · CA14 FPG

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate issued on 5 November 2025, which remains in force until 4 November 2026. The maintenance trend appears exceptionally stable, as the car has cleared its last three annual inspections without any recorded advisories or failures related to mechanical defects. While the vehicle failed initial tests in both 2023 and 2025, the lack of specific defect codes suggests these were likely administrative issues or minor oversights rather than systemic mechanical failures. Accumulated mileage stands at 104,448 miles over a twelve-year lifespan, averaging approximately 8,700 miles per annum. This usage pattern is consistent with typical domestic driving and indicates the vehicle has remained in regular service rather than suffering from long-term inactivity. The data shows a steady progression of mileage between 2023 and 2025, confirming that the car is being driven frequently enough to keep drivetrain components lubricated and operational. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the condition of consumable items that often escape MOT scrutiny, specifically the state of the brake discs and pads, which may be nearing their service limit despite the clean inspection record. Check the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of fatigue or perished rubber, as these components frequently wear at this mileage. Since the MOT history is notably devoid of advisories, verify the service history documentation to ensure that major items like the timing belt or water pump have been replaced in accordance with the manufacturer schedule, as these critical maintenance tasks are not captured by the DVSA testing process.
