2016 Volkswagen Passat 2.0L Diesel · EO66 AAV

This Volkswagen Passat maintains a stable and exemplary roadworthiness record. The most recent MOT test on 2 September 2025 at 27,082 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This clean bill of health follows a consistent pattern of first-time passes dating back to 2021, indicating a vehicle that has been kept in a high state of mechanical repair. The mileage is exceptionally low for a ten year old vehicle, averaging roughly 2,708 miles per year. The progression is steady, moving from 12,027 miles in September 2021 to 27,082 miles by September 2025. There are no erratic jumps in distance or suspicious gaps in the record, suggesting the car has been used sparingly but regularly rather than sitting dormant for years. While the MOT history is devoid of mechanical failures, the low usage pattern introduces specific risks. A buyer should check for perished rubber components, such as suspension bushes and tyre sidewalls, which can degrade due to age regardless of mileage. Brake discs should be inspected for surface corrosion or pitting, a common issue when vehicles are not driven enough to scrub the rotors clean. The absence of any recorded advisories regarding structural integrity or corrosion is a positive indicator for a vehicle of this age. However, a physical inspection should still verify the condition of the battery and oil quality, as infrequent short trips can lead to premature battery failure and sludge buildup in the engine.
