2014 Volkswagen Passat 2.0L Diesel · FD14 ADV

This Volkswagen Passat demonstrates an exceptionally stable maintenance trend and remains roadworthy based on the most recent MOT test. The vehicle passed its last inspection on 1 July 2025 at 103,765 miles with no defects recorded. This clean bill of health follows a consistent pattern of passes dating back to 2022, suggesting a high standard of mechanical upkeep. The mileage is typical for a twelve year old vehicle, averaging roughly 8,647 miles per year. The distance covered between tests has remained steady, with 3,458 miles added between June 2022 and July 2023, and 2,776 miles between June 2024 and July 2025. There are no erratic gaps or sudden spikes in usage that would indicate periods of neglect or excessive commercial wear. The MOT history is unusually clean for a car of this age. The record shows a failure on 5 July 2023 at 97,531 miles, though the vehicle passed on the same day with no defects listed in the final report. This suggests a minor administrative error or a trivial fix handled immediately. No recurring issues with suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions appear across the five-year data set. A buyer should still conduct a physical inspection of the underbody for surface corrosion, as MOT testers often overlook minor rust that does not yet compromise structural integrity. Given the lack of flagged advisories for tyres or brake pads over the last three tests, the previous owner appears diligent. Focus the manual check on the condition of the timing belt and water pump, as these service items are not captured in MOT records but are critical at this mileage.
