2014 Volkswagen Passat 1.6L Diesel · NJ14 PYV

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile with a clean recent history. The most recent MOT test on 31 August 2024 at 92,809 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to October 2020, suggesting that the vehicle has been well-maintained or at least free from significant mechanical or structural failures during its recent years of operation. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with a typical driver, averaging approximately 7,700 miles per year over its twelve-year lifespan. The record shows a steady increase from 45,234 miles in 2017 to 92,809 miles in 2024. While there was a slightly larger gap in mileage recorded between February 2023 and August 2024, the overall progression indicates regular use rather than long periods of stagnation. The historical data shows minor consumable issues that were addressed promptly. In March 2017, the vehicle failed due to a non-functioning offside front lower lamp and windscreen damage, both of which were rectified for a subsequent pass. A further failure in October 2017 regarding windscreen damage was also resolved. These early issues were limited to external visibility and lighting and do not indicate any underlying mechanical or structural concerns. Given the lack of advisories or failures regarding suspension bushes, brake discs, or corrosion in the recent years, the vehicle seems to be in good order. A buyer should still conduct a physical inspection of the braking system for binding calipers and check the condition of the tyres and wiper blades, as these are standard wear items not always detailed in a clean MOT history. The absence of any recorded structural or emissions issues provides confidence in the vehicle's current roadworthiness.
