2014 Volkswagen Golf 1.6L Diesel · FM14 OKH

The Volkswagen Golf presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 8 October 2025 at 88,649 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The tester recorded no defects at that examination. A failed test logged on the same date at 88,648 miles shows no defects listed, indicating a clerical or administrative rejection rather than a mechanical fault before the immediate pass. Annual mileage averages around 7,387 miles, which is typical for a 2014 vehicle of this type. The records show consistent yearly use: 64,965 miles in September 2022, 72,647 miles in October 2023, 80,965 miles in October 2024, and 88,649 miles by October 2025. The gaps between tests span roughly twelve months each, with no sudden accumulation or prolonged dormancy suggesting neglect or excessive commercial duty. The DVSA data flags no advisories for tyres, suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions at any stage. Such a clean sheet across five consecutive tests implies the previous keeper addressed wear proactively and the car avoided structural or mechanical escalation. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of underbody integrity and suspension components, as MOT pass sheets do not capture incipient wear outside test-day thresholds. Given the absence of recorded faults, the Golf's history supports confident used purchase consideration. Verify the 8 October 2025 fail-and-pass sequence with the selling garage to confirm no omitted rectification, then proceed to a standard pre-sale mechanical check.
