2014 Volkswagen Passat 2.0L Diesel · SC14 RTX

This Volkswagen Passat demonstrates a stable and exceptionally clean roadworthiness trend. The most recent test on 29 September 2025 at 87,788 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean certificates over the preceding years, suggesting the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard. The mileage accumulation is consistent with the age of the vehicle, averaging roughly 7,316 miles per year. Between 27 March 2023 at 75,254 miles and the latest entry in September 2025, the car covered 12,534 miles. This steady usage indicates the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of standing, which often leads to seized calipers or perished rubber seals. The MOT record is unusually sparse regarding faults. A failure on 17 October 2023 at 77,459 miles was resolved on the same day, though the record does not specify the nature of the defect. The absence of recurring advisories for suspension bushes, brake disc corrosion, or tyre tread depth over the last three years implies a proactive approach to maintenance by the previous owner. A physical inspection should focus on common age-related wear that MOT tests sometimes overlook. Check the condition of the timing belt and water pump, as these are critical service items for this engine and are not flagged during a standard MOT. Inspect the chassis and sills for surface corrosion, as the lack of recorded structural defects in the history does not guarantee the absence of early-stage oxidation.
