2015 Volkswagen Passat SE TDI Bluemotion Tech 2.0L Diesel · MV65 NNW

The overall roadworthiness status is currently passing, with the most recent MOT test on 2025-08-21 at 88,746 miles failing to show any defects. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the series of tests from 2023 to 2025 all passed, indicating that the vehicle has not experienced a catastrophic failure in the last few years. The data suggests that while the engine covers and under trays were fitted in 2023, the subsequent tests in 2024 and 2025 confirm that these components have remained in good condition. The mileage accumulation is relatively consistent with an 11-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,068 miles per year. The test dates fall within the typical range for this age group, and the mileage itself does not show any rapid acceleration or sudden spikes that would indicate a significant wear pattern. The gap between the 2025 and 2024 tests is small, suggesting the vehicle has maintained its mechanical integrity through routine servicing, though the 2022 test reveals a slight acceleration in mileage compared to the 2023 baseline. Given the history, the buyer should inspect the suspension and steering components for binding calipers, worn bushings, or loose ball joints, as well as the front and rear brake discs for pitting or scoring. A thorough visual check of the engine covers and under trays is also recommended to verify they are still in good condition, as the 2023 test noted this was fitted. Additionally, inspecting the offside front tyres for wear on the edge and checking the nearside front outer drive shaft joint for the deteriorated constant velocity boot is crucial, as these are the most common areas where structural integrity could be compromised.
