Our Verdict

A highly recommended purchase. This blue Volkswagen Golf boasts an exceptionally clean MOT record and consistent mileage growth, suggesting a well-maintained example.

Given the flawless MOT history from 2021 through 2025, your primary focus should be on the service history. Ensure the cambelt and water pump have been replaced, as these are critical maintenance items for the 1968cc diesel engine around the 100,000-mile mark.

Negotiate based on the upcoming service requirements. While the MOT history is clean, a full service record that matches the mileage increments seen in the MOT data (e.g., the jump from 84,918 to 94,596 miles) will confirm the previous owner's diligence.

The 2.0L diesel engine is designed for efficiency, particularly on longer motorway commutes, offering strong MPG figures. Tax will fall into a standard band for 2014 diesel models, though you should verify the specific CO2 emissions for this engine variant.

Insurance for the Golf is generally competitive, though the 2.0L engine sits in a slightly higher group than the 1.6L variants. Maintenance costs are typically moderate, provided the vehicle is serviced regularly to avoid common diesel particulate filter (DPF) issues.

While the MOT history shows no defects, always inspect the brake discs and pads for wear, as these are consumables that may not trigger an MOT failure until they are critical. Check the condition of the blue paintwork for any age-related fading or stone chips.

Pay close attention to the clutch and flywheel operation during the test drive. At 101,802 miles, these components may begin to show signs of wear, which would not necessarily appear on an MOT certificate but could represent a future cost.

This 2014 Diesel Golf is in impressive condition for its age, having passed its last five MOT tests with zero defects recorded. With a current mileage of 101,802 miles, the vehicle shows a steady usage pattern of approximately 7,000 to 10,000 miles per year. It presents as a reliable, low-risk option for a buyer seeking a durable 2.0L diesel hatchback.

The Volkswagen Golf is widely regarded as a benchmark for reliability and build quality in the hatchback segment.
