2014 Volkswagen Golf 1.6L Diesel · VE64 VVL

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by a clean MOT pass on 25 June 2026 at 96,504 miles. This recent result shows an improving trend in maintenance compared to previous years where minor consumable-related issues were noted. The absence of any defects in the last two annual tests suggests that the current owner is proactive in addressing mechanical requirements before they escalate into test failures. The mileage pattern remains consistent with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 8,000 miles per annum. Between June 2022 and June 2026, the car covered 42,131 miles, showing a steady rate of accumulation. There was a slight gap between the August 2024 and June 2025 tests, but the accumulation of 9,362 miles in that period indicates the vehicle has remained in regular use, which helps to prevent the seal degradation and brake seizing often associated with long periods of standing. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the tyres and suspension geometry, as the August 2024 test flagged both the nearside and offside front tyres as being near the legal limit and showing edge wear. This specific pattern often indicates a need for alignment or worn suspension bushes. While the 2023 advisory regarding a nail in the offside rear tyre was an isolated incident, thorough checking for uneven tread wear remains advisable to ensure no underlying tracking issues exist.
