2011 Volkswagen Passat 2.0L Diesel · FX11 VXK

The 2011 Volkswagen Passat presents a clean roadworthiness status as of the most recent test on 10 March 2026 at 132,157 miles, where the tester recorded no defects. The maintenance trend is stable across the full five-year MOT window. Every annual examination from 26 January 2022 through to the 2026 test returned a pass with no advisories or faults logged, indicating the vehicle has not shown worsening mechanical condition or recurring defect patterns in the official record. Annual mileage sits at a typical level for a fifteen-year-old car. The record shows 78,030 miles on 26 January 2022, rising to 92,592 by 14 March 2023, 104,053 on 19 February 2024, 117,569 on 14 February 2025, and 132,157 on 10 March 2026. That equates to roughly 11,000 to 14,000 miles added each year, marginally above the long-term average of 8,810 but consistent and unremarkable. No standing periods or sudden accumulation spikes appear. The sparse, clean history gives no evidence of deferred basic upkeep such as skipped tyre replacement or ignored brake wear. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection before purchase. The MOT record flags no suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, binding calipers, or structural corrosion across the timeline. Absence of advisories does not certify component life remaining at 132,157 miles. Expect natural consumable wear on dampers, exhaust emissions compliance, and subframe rust given the age and salt-exposure years on UK roads. Previous owners clearly kept the Passat to a test-pass standard with no recorded failures or neglected items. The straight pass run suggests reasonable care, though the DVSA sheet alone cannot reveal intermittent faults or cosmetic rot. Verify service history matches the mileage steps and inspect underneath for hidden structural integrity issues the annual test did not capture.
