2019 Volkswagen Touareg 3.0L Diesel · H13 CAO

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate following a pass on 6 January 2026 at 51,302 miles. The test record shows a stable trend, with the last three consecutive annual inspections resulting in passes with no defects recorded. This follows a period of mechanical intervention in late 2022, indicating that the specific failure identified at that time was addressed and has not recurred in subsequent testing. The recorded mileage of 51,302 miles over seven years averages approximately 7,300 miles per annum, which aligns with standard usage patterns for a vehicle of this classification. The testing history is consistent, with annual assessments occurring regularly since the vehicle became eligible for its first MOT. There are no significant gaps in the testing timeline that would suggest extended periods of inactivity or irregular usage patterns. While the recent test results are clean, a prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension components, specifically the rear coil springs. The failure recorded on 16 December 2022 for a fractured nearside rear coil spring highlights a potential vulnerability in the suspension geometry under load. Given the weight of this vehicle, verify the integrity of all four coil springs and check for any signs of premature fatigue or corrosion on the mounting points. Inspect the brake discs and pads for uneven wear, as these are high-consumption items on heavier SUVs that may not always be captured as minor defects during an MOT. Buying score: 85. Risk level: Low.
