Spanner can help turn your car details into an advert.
Could suit you if…
- Your usual group fits within 5 seats, including the driver. Check passenger space and any child-seat fit in person.
- You regularly make longer journeys: diesel may fit that pattern better than a routine of mostly short trips. Compare actual running costs.
Think twice if…
- You need to carry more than 5 people together: the advert records 5 seats, including the driver.
- Most journeys are short school runs or local trips: check whether this diesel has a particulate filter and what longer runs its handbook requires.
- You need predictable ownership costs: at around 11 years old and 255,000 km, check maintenance records and upcoming work. Mileage alone does not tell you the car's condition.
This is general guidance about this type of car and your needs — not an inspection or approval of this individual car.
The 2015 Passat is the B8 on VW's MQB platform and commonly comes with 1.6 TDI or 2.0 TDI diesels; the 2.0s may have AdBlue and stricter emissions hardware depending on spec. As a manual diesel you should prioritise clutch and dual-mass flywheel condition on higher-mileage cars, and be aware that DPF and EGR soot buildup is a common issue if the car has mostly short trips. The saloon (not the Variant estate) gives a large boot but less cargo flexibility than the estate.
- DPF and EGR condition — signs of frequent regenerations, heavy soot or warning lights (common if used for short urban runs)
- Clutch and dual-mass flywheel for slipping or rattles under take-up (replacement is costly on high-mileage manuals)
- Turbocharger shaft play and oil leaks at turbo/intercooler hoses
- Timing belt/auxiliary belt replacement history and service stamps (check interval for the fitted engine)
- Rear suspension and wheel-arch/underbody corrosion around seams and suspension mounts
