2011 Volkswagen Touran SE Blue Tech TDI 1.6L Diesel · PNZ 6524

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, showing a consistent maintenance trend over the last three years. The most recent test on 27 December 2025 at 161,999 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum safety and environmental standards. This follows a period of clean passes in 2024 and 2023, suggesting that the current owner is proactively addressing minor mechanical issues before they escalate into MOT failures. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a fifteen-year-old diesel vehicle, averaging approximately 10,800 miles per annum. The record shows a steady rate of use, with 13,800 miles covered between May 2022 and July 2023, and another 24,236 miles between July 2023 and December 2025. This regular usage suggests the vehicle has not sat stationary for long periods, which is beneficial for engine seals and brake components. The brief failure on 1 July 2023 at 137,672 miles was rectified just two days before the subsequent inspection, indicating a minor repair rather than a systemic mechanical failure. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on high-mileage components typical to this age of Touran. While the MOT history is clean of structural corrosion warnings, the suspension control arm bushes and coil springs are prone to wear at the 160,000-mile mark. You should also check for signs of oil leaks around the turbo and inspect the brake discs for thinning or binding calipers. Given the Blue Tech powertrain, verifying the condition of the diesel particulate filter and exhaust system is essential, as these components are costly to replace at this high mileage.
