2021 Volkswagen Tiguan Life TSI 1.5L Petrol · GJ21 KPU

The vehicle is currently in a roadworthy state, passing its most recent MOT in February 2026 at 58,251 miles with no recorded defects. This indicates an improving maintenance trend compared to the previous year, where several consumable-related issues were identified. The transition from a list of multiple advisories to a clean pass suggests that the current owner has addressed the mechanical and tyre concerns previously flagged during earlier inspections. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 11,650 miles per year. The record shows a steady progression of 17,551 miles between the February 2024 test (24,672 miles) and the March 2025 test (42,223 miles), followed by another 16,028 miles leading to the February 2026 test. This regularity suggests consistent vehicle use rather than long periods of stagnation, which generally benefits engine seals and mechanical components. A buyer should perform a physical inspection of the braking system and tyre condition, as the March 2025 test highlighted thin front brake pads and worn tyres on the nearside rear. While these appear to have been rectified given the clean 2026 report, verifying the remaining life on the pads and checking for uneven wear remains prudent. The previous nearside rear tyre cut noted in 2024 should also be visually inspected to ensure no structural damage has developed over time that could compromise the sidewall integrity.
