2014 Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0L Diesel · HXZ 2055

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 12 June 2026, but the maintenance trend shows a shift toward increasing suspension and tyre wear. While the 2024 test recorded no defects, the 2025 and 2026 records indicate emerging issues with chassis and suspension components. The most recent inspection flagged worn pins or bushes on both the nearside and offside front suspension arms, alongside a front tyre worn close to the legal limit. The recorded mileage of 83,898 miles suggests an average annual usage of approximately 7,000 miles over the twelve-year lifespan of the vehicle. This represents a relatively low-mileage usage pattern for a 2014 model. The MOT history shows consistent annual testing without significant gaps in documentation, though the frequency of advisories has increased in the last two years. A prospective buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension assembly. The repeated advisories regarding suspension arm pins and bushes in 2026 suggest these components are nearing the end of their service life. The 2025 test also identified corrosion on both rear lower trailing arms, an issue that requires close monitoring to ensure it does not progress into structural degradation. The history also highlights intermittent issues with consumables and minor oversights. The 2025 failure for a missing nearside rear road wheel fixing indicates a lapse in basic pre-test checks. Furthermore, the 2023 advisory regarding cracking or perishing on both rear tyres, combined with the 2026 advisory for a worn front tyre, suggests that tyre replacement intervals may be inconsistent.
