2016 Volkswagen Touran 1.6L Diesel · PF16 AAY

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a consistent history of clean passes across multiple years. The most recent test conducted in September 2025 at 58,852 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, indicating a stable maintenance trend. This lack of recorded failure points suggests that the previous owners were proactive with upkeep and that the mechanical components have remained within operational tolerances over the last several years. The mileage profile is notably low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,885 miles per year. Data shows a period of minimal use between July 2022 and October 2022, where only 1,096 miles were covered in three months. However, the usage has increased more recently, with 10,030 miles put for between the August 2024 test and the September 2025 test. This low annual mileage generally reduces the wear on the drivetrain and suspension, though it can sometimes lead to perished rubber components if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. While the MOT record is devoid of faults, a buyer should perform a physical inspection of components susceptible to low-mileage neglect. Check the suspension bushes for cracking, the underbody for surface corrosion on the subframe, and ensure the brake calipers are not seizing. Inspect the brake discs for pitting or uneven rust, as infrequent use can cause surface oxidation that affects braking performance. Additionally, verify the age of the tyres, as tread depth may be sufficient despite the rubber hardening over time.
