2014 Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0L Diesel · HJ64 AAK

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent inspection conducted on 6 November 2025 at 152,425 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that the vehicle met all minimum safety and emissions standards. While a failure occurred in early November 2024 at 136,034 miles, the subsequent pass recorded just three days later suggests the issue was minor and successfully rectified immediately by the owner. The mileage profile reflects a consistent high-use pattern, averaging approximately 12,700 miles per year over the twelve-year period. Between October 2022 and November 2025, the vehicle covered 46,858 miles, showing a steady accumulation of over 15,000 miles annually. This regular usage suggests the car has likely been used for longer motorway journeys rather than short trips, which often prevents moisture-related degradation but accelerates the wear on mechanical drivetrain components and suspension bushings. Given the high mileage and the age of the vehicle, a physical inspection must focus on the suspension and braking system. The buyer should examine the suspension bushes, control arms, and coil springs for signs of premature fatigue or tearing, which are common on Tiguan models exceeding 150,000 miles. Checking for binding calipers or thin brake discs is also essential. While the MOT record shows no current advisories, the structural integrity of the chassis should be verified for surface corrosion to ensure no hidden corrosion has developed around the mounting points.
