2011 Volkswagen Passat 2.0L Diesel · DA61 HVG

The vehicle presents a contradictory roadworthiness picture from its most recent testing cycle. On 3 February 2022 at 264,915 miles the Passat passed with no defects recorded, yet on the very same date and mileage it also failed with no defects listed. This duplicated entry shows an unstable administrative record rather than a clear maintenance trend, and no further MOT data exists beyond that point over four years ago. The odometer stood at 264,915 miles on 3 February 2022, equating to roughly 17,661 miles annually across the car's fifteen years. That is high cumulative use for a 2011 model and implies sustained motorway or fleet-type operation. The supplied history contains only the two 2022 entries, so no mileage progression or gap can be assessed after that date, and the long silence since suggests the car may have been laid up or simply not retested. A buyer should physically verify the current MOT status and confirm why a pass and fail share an identical date and zero defects. The absence of advisories on suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, or corrosion in the record offers no assurance given the high mileage and four-year void. Prior to any purchase, a technician must inspect structural integrity for rust, check binding calipers and exhaust emissions, and measure tyre tread and wiper condition. The record alone cannot certify roadworthiness after such prolonged inactivity.
