Tested
“Here we have a blue metallic Volkswagen Passat estate that offers both style and safety on the road. Manual gearbox and four-wheel drive for stability all year round. Equipped with rearview camera, smartphone integration, and keyless start system. Note: the car is banned from driving and this is a car with significant technical issues. We urge you to carefully read through both technical and visual remarks and study the remark photos available.”
The Tested range is a wide selection of used cars which, depending on their age and mileage, may require some maintenance and servicing, as well as possible repairs. However, each vehicle is unique with its own history, so it is important to read the description and any comments in our test to understand its condition.
What do we notice in the Kvd test?
Our vehicle technicians have tested the car on more than 170 points and noted both approved points and eventual remarks. This gives you a good and fair picture of the car.
Since the the car has had a previous owner, some signs of use may be present, which we consider normal wear based on the car’s age and mileage. This is not indicated in the test results, but is a natural part of a used car.

The car has not been test driven due to the wrong tires for the season. Engine noise, drive belt side. Engine light is on. Slow start. Ticking noise in engine compartment. Haldex disc, dry cracked.

The drivetrain should work but requires ongoing maintenance and replacement of components. The drivetrain is noisier than on a car that has driven a shorter distance. Traces of oil in the engine compartment are very common and oil consumption is higher than when the car was new. The range on electricity is limited.
