2007 Volkswagen Passat 2.0L Diesel · RA07 KWK

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate issued on 13 June 2024 at 107,171 miles with no defects recorded, indicating a stable and clean maintenance trend. This recent pass confirms that the car met all statutory safety and environmental standards as of last summer. Given that over thirteen months have elapsed since the last inspection, the vehicle is currently overdue for a new test, and the lack of recent data means its current roadworthiness remains unverified against today's date. With an average annual usage of approximately 5,640 miles, the vehicle has seen relatively light service over its nineteen-year lifespan. The mileage accumulation has remained consistent, rising from 94,370 miles in July 2021 to the current 107,171 miles. This steady progression suggests the car has been used regularly rather than left standing for extended periods, which often mitigates the risk of seized mechanical components or perished rubber seals associated with long-term storage. The MOT history is notably clean, showing no recurring advisories or failures regarding structural integrity, suspension bushes, or braking systems. While the record shows a failed test on 4 August 2022 followed by an immediate pass on the same day, the absence of recorded defects suggests a minor administrative error or a rectifiable oversight rather than a significant mechanical failure. A prospective buyer should prioritize a physical inspection of the brake discs and pads, as these consumables may have reached the end of their service life despite the clean history. Check the underside for signs of corrosion on the subframe and sills, as these areas are prone to degradation on older Volkswagen models regardless of the low mileage.
