2014 Volkswagen Golf 1.4L Petrol · PO64 WWU

The vehicle presents as a roadworthy example, showing a clear trend of improving maintenance standards. The most recent test in November 2025 at 60,235 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating that previous mechanical concerns have been addressed. This follows two consecutive clean passes in 2024 and 2023, suggesting the car is currently being maintained to a high standard. At 60,235 miles over twelve years, the Golf has covered a low average of approximately 5,000 miles per year. This low usage profile typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with the vehicle travelling between 6,000 and 7,000 miles between annual tests. While low mileage often implies lighter stress on the chassis, it can occasionally lead to the degradation of rubber components and brake hardware if the vehicle sits stationary for long periods. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front suspension, given the faults recorded during the December 2022 test at 41,096 miles. That inspection flagged worn bushes on both the nearside and offside front inner suspension arm pins, along with front tyres reaching the legal limit. Although these issues were resolved in subsequent tests, a manual check of the control arms and ball joints is advisable to ensure no new tearing or rubber cracking has appeared. Given the age of the vehicle, checking for early-stage surface corrosion on the subframe and exhaust lines is also prudent, as these areas are not always captured in a standard MOT until they become structural.
