2019 Volkswagen Tiguan 1.5L Petrol · AF69 HCJ

The Volkswagen Tiguan presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 29 August 2025 at 47,767 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The DVLA data shows three consecutive annual passes and two same-day failure-then-pass cycles in 2024 and 2025 where the tester logged no defects on either the failed or passed certificates. This pattern points to administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than any mechanical fault, and no advisories for corrosion, suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions have ever been raised. The mileage record shows light but plausible use for a 2019 vehicle. The car covered 29,705 miles by 29 September 2023, then 41,694 miles by 27 September 2024, and 47,767 miles by 29 August 2025. That equates to roughly 12,000 miles in the first interval and only 6,000 in the second, averaging 6,824 miles per year overall. The sparse, clean record with no flagged wear items gives little evidence of neglected consumables, though the low annual distance may mean longer periods standing that can encourage seized calipers or flat-spotted tyres not caught in a static test. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of the brake calipers and flexible hoses given the vehicle's low-use profile, and confirm the suspension bushes and coil springs show no age-related cracking. The twin failure entries with zero defects suggest the seller or tester rebooked on the same day; verify the V5C and test certificate authenticity to rule out clerical anomalies. No structural integrity concerns or recurring mechanical faults appear in the official record. The Tiguan's history supports a fair used-car prospect, subject to the routine pre-purchase checks above.
