Our Verdict
A solid recommendation for those seeking a well-sized family MPV with a relatively clean recent history. The mileage is well-managed for a 2017 model, though buyers should still verify the service intervals.
When viewing this white Touran, your primary focus should be on confirming the service history, as MOT records only reflect minimum safety standards and not mechanical upkeep. Ask for proof of oil changes, particularly for the 1.2L petrol engine, to ensure long-term reliability.
Since the 2023 MOT failure occurred just one mile before a pass, it suggests a minor issue was rectified immediately. Check if there is any documentation regarding what that specific failure was. Additionally, check the condition of the tyres and brake pads, as these are common wear items that may not always trigger an MOT failure if they are just above the legal limit.
The 1197cc petrol engine is generally positioned in a lower insurance group and tax band compared to larger diesel counterparts, making it a cost-effective choice for many families. Fuel economy for this engine size in a Touran chassis is typically moderate, balancing MPV utility with petrol efficiency.
Annual running costs will be influenced by your annual mileage and insurance profile, but you should budget for standard consumables like tyres and brakes. Maintenance costs for Volkswagen models tend to be mid-range, being more expensive than budget brands but often benefiting from a wide availability of parts.
While the recent MOT history from 2024 and 2025 shows no defects, you should inspect the vehicle for any signs of uneven tyre wear or brake disc scoring. Given the 2023 failure, it is worth asking the seller for clarity on that specific event to ensure it wasn't a recurring issue.
Check the interior for wear on the driver's seat and controls, which can indicate how the vehicle was used. For a petrol Touran of this age, also inspect the engine bay for any signs of fluid leaks around the seals, which can sometimes occur as components age.
This 2017 Volkswagen Touran features a 1.2L petrol engine and has covered 55,897 miles as of its most recent MOT in August 2025. The MOT history shows a consistent pattern of passes, with only one failure recorded in 2023 at 41,297 miles. The vehicle has maintained a steady mileage progression, suggesting regular use rather than long periods of sitting idle.
No aggregate MOT data is available for the Volkswagen Touran to provide a specific reliability trend for this model.
