2014 Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0L Diesel · AF54 HER

The Volkswagen Tiguan presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the most recent test on 26 September 2025 at 101,135 miles where the tester recorded no defects. Prior annual examinations returned clean passes, showing no escalating mechanical concerns across the recorded history. The vehicle holds a consistent clean bill of health with no outstanding advisories or repeated faults. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a 2014 model, averaging roughly 8,400 miles per year against the 101,135 miles recorded. The jump from 81,518 miles at the 27 September 2024 test to 101,135 miles by September 2025 shows around 19,600 miles covered in that year, above the long-term average but not abnormal for a family SUV. The DVSA data is sparse on faults, with only a failed test on 11 November 2022 at 59,509 miles that listed no defects, reversed four days later on 15 November 2022 with a pass at 59,578 miles; this suggests an administrative or minor non-mechanical rejection rather than a worn component. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc wear given the age and the higher annual mileage in the latest period. The clean MOT record offers no flagged corrosion or exhaust emission issues, yet twelve years of service can conceal underbody rust or tired dampers not caught in a roadside test. Verify service history to confirm consumables such as timing belt and transmission fluid were renewed at the correct intervals.
