2010 Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0L Diesel · DG60 ACZ

The vehicle remains roadworthy as of the December 2025 MOT, passing at 92,598 miles, but all four tyres were flagged as worn close to the legal limit. No serious mechanical or structural defects appeared on that test, indicating a generally stable maintenance record, though tyre wear recurs annually and should be addressed promptly. Mileage has risen to 92,598 miles over sixteen years, averaging roughly 5,800 miles per year – well below the typical usage for a vehicle of this age. The log shows a steady climb, with the most recent two‑year interval (71,810 miles in August 2023 to 92,598 miles in December 2025) representing a modest increase of about 20,800 miles, suggesting consistent but low‑intensity use rather than periods of heavy loading or neglect. A prospective buyer must examine the tyre condition closely, confirming that tread depth exceeds the legal minimum and that sidewalls are free of bulges or cracks. The history of light oil misting on the front shock absorbers (recorded in 2020, 2021 and 2022) warrants a visual check for any current leaks or reduced damping, while the 2020 note of a corroded nearside rear coil spring and the 2013 fracture of the offside rear coil spring call for a thorough inspection of all suspension springs for corrosion or fatigue. The windscreen damage noted in 2015 should be verified for any progression, and the child‑seat fitting restriction recorded in 2020 must be confirmed as resolved to allow full belt inspection. Ensuring headlamp alignment is correct, given the 2013 failure, will also be prudent.
