Our Verdict
This is a sensible option for high-mileage drivers seeking a large diesel saloon. While the mileage is significant, the recent MOT history shows a consistent pattern of passing tests without recorded defects.
Given the 1968cc diesel engine and the high mileage of nearly 175,000 miles, your primary focus should be on verifying the service history. At this stage in a diesel engine's life, ensuring that timing belt and water pump changes have been performed according to manufacturer intervals is critical.
When negotiating, consider the high mileage as a lever, but do not discount the car if it has a documented history of regular maintenance. Check for any signs of excessive wear in the interior and ensure the clutch and flywheel (if manual) feel smooth, as these are common wear items on high-mileage Passats.
As a 2.0L diesel, this Passat is designed for efficient long-distance cruising. Fuel economy should be relatively high, making it a cost-effective choice for motorway commuting.
Tax and insurance will depend on the specific CO2 emissions and the driver's profile, but typically, this model sits in a mid-range insurance group. Maintenance costs for a vehicle of this age and mileage will likely involve more frequent replacements of suspension components and consumables like brakes and tyres.
The MOT history for PO64VXY shows a failure in October 2024, though the specific defect was not detailed in the summary provided. You should ask the seller for clarification on what caused that failure and how it was rectified.
Beyond the MOT records, inspect the underside for signs of corrosion and check the condition of the diesel particulate filter (DPF), which can become an issue in high-mileage diesel engines. Additionally, look for any fluid leaks around the engine bay and check the condition of the suspension bushings, which often require attention on vehicles that have covered over 150,000 miles.
This 2014 black Volkswagen Passat has covered 174,959 miles since its first registration in October 2014. The MOT history shows five recorded tests, with the most recent pass in November 2025 showing no defects. Despite the high mileage, the vehicle has maintained a consistent testing schedule, though it did experience one failure in October 2024.
