2014 VOLKSWAGEN TIGUAN2.0L Diesel

The Volkswagen Tiguan presents as roadworthy following the most recent test on 24 February 2026 at 99,007 miles, where the tester recorded no defects. The maintenance trend is stable with no advisories or failures on mechanical grounds across the available record. A prior failure on 23 February 2026 at 99,005 miles shows no defects logged, indicating an administrative or non-mechanical rejection rather than a worn component fault. Mileage accumulation is consistent with typical use for a 2014 vehicle. The record shows 88,705 miles at the February 2024 test, rising to 94,150 miles in February 2025 and 99,007 miles by February 2026. That equates to roughly 5,200 to 5,400 miles per year across the logged period, below the 8,251 annual average implied by the odometer. The clean pass history with no corrosion, brake, suspension, or emission flags suggests the previous owner kept basic consumables within limits, though the sparse three-year span limits deeper wear assessment. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the car is now twelve years old and past 99,000 miles. The February 2026 and February 2025 failures with zero defects recorded warrant confirmation that no outstanding recall or documentation issue remains open with DVSA. Check underneath for structural rust at chassis mounting points and inspect exhaust emissions hardware in person. The absence of advisories across all tests does not exempt a 2014 Tiguan from age-related degradation invisible to the MOT lane.
