Our Verdict
Proceed with caution. While the mileage
The primary concern with this vehicle is the evidence of structural and component corrosion. You should negotiate the price based on the likely cost of replacing the corroded coil springs and addressing the rear sub-frame corrosion noted in the August 2026 MOT. Ensure you have a detailed service history to see if any rust-proofing or suspension overhauls have been carried out.
Additionally, investigate the nature of the Engine MIL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp) failure from August 2026. Confirm whether a specific part was replaced or if the fault code was simply cleared, as this could indicate an underlying electronic or emissions issue common to diesel engines of this era.
The 1968cc diesel engine is designed for efficiency, particularly on longer journeys, though maintenance costs may be higher for this specific vehicle due to the noted corrosion. Insurance for a Passat typically falls into a moderate group, and road tax will be based on its 2014 CO2 emissions bracket.
Given the recurring suspension and corrosion advisories, you should budget for higher-than-average maintenance. Estimated annual running costs, including fuel, tax, insurance, and anticipated chassis repairs, are likely to be between £1,200 and £1,600.
A thorough underside inspection is essential. Specifically, check the rear sub-frame and the offside front and both rear coil springs for the corrosion highlighted in the most recent MOT. Examine the front brake discs for the pitting and scoring mentioned in the August 2026 report to determine if they require immediate replacement.
Check the front lower suspension arm bushes, as these have been a recurring advisory since November 2024. Finally, use an OBD-II scanner to check for any stored fault codes related to the Engine MIL failure recorded in August 2026 to ensure the issue is fully resolved.
This 2014 black Volkswagen Passat 2.0 Diesel has covered 81,461 miles, which is below the model average. The MOT history shows a history of suspension issues, including a 2024 failure for seriously weakened rear lower suspension arms. The most recent test in August 2026 passed but left significant advisories regarding corrosion on the rear sub-frame and multiple coil springs.
The Passat has an average MOT pass rate of 80%, with common failures typically involving headlamps, tyres, and drive shaft joints.
