2011 Volkswagen Passat 2.0L Diesel · PX61 WPP

The vehicle's MOT history shows a stable trend of passing tests over the last four years, though a failure occurred on 12 May 2025 immediately prior to the subsequent pass on 13 May 2025. While the most recent record from May 2025 shows no defects, the single failure in 2025 indicates a specific mechanical or safety issue required rectification to meet minimum standards. No other failures or advisories appear in the records from 2022 through 2024. The recorded mileage of 123,101 miles is consistent with the vehicle's 2011 age, averaging approximately 8,207 miles per year. The MOT data spans from May 2022 to May 2025, showing regular annual testing without significant gaps in the inspection timeline. The mileage progression appears steady, suggesting the vehicle has seen typical usage rather than long periods of inactivity or excessive high-speed motorway running. Because the 2025 failure did not specify the defect in the provided summary, a physical inspection is necessary to identify what caused the non-compliance. A buyer should specifically examine the braking system for binding calipers or worn discs, as well as the suspension components including bushes and coil springs, which are common wear items on a vehicle of this age and mileage. The absence of recorded advisories regarding corrosion or structural integrity in the recent tests is a positive indicator, but the lack of detail on the 2025 failure means the underlying cause remains unverified. Checking for leaks, exhaust emissions, and tyre tread depth during a viewing will help confirm if the vehicle's current state aligns with the clean 2025 pass.
