2020 Volkswagen Passat SE TDI S-A 2.0L Diesel · YK70 YAV

The 2025‑11‑04 MOT at 118,342 miles recorded a pass with no defects, confirming that the vehicle remains roadworthy as of the latest test. The preceding MOTs in September 2024 and September 2023 also showed passes with no recorded failures, indicating a stable maintenance trend and no recurring mechanical issues. The mileage pattern reflects heavy use for a six‑year‑old car: 118,342 miles equates to roughly 19,724 miles per year, well above the average for its age. Mileage rose from 93,849 miles in September 2024 to 118,342 miles in November 2025, an increase of about 24,500 miles in 14 months, suggesting intensive driving. The brief failure on 2024‑09‑20 that was resolved by the following day’s pass shows no lingering faults. A buyer should inspect the suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and calipers for binding or wear, examine the structural integrity for rust or damage, and verify the condition of the exhaust system and drivetrain components. Particular attention to tyre tread depth and wiper blade condition is advisable, given the high annual mileage. Because the car’s mileage is high for its age, a thorough mechanical examination focusing on braking and suspension systems is essential to confirm that the recent clean record reflects genuine maintenance rather than deferred faults.
