2018 Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0L Diesel · AP18 ADU

The vehicle presents a clean and consistent roadworthiness record, having passed every annual assessment since 2021 without a single recorded defect or advisory. The most recent test conducted on 4 June 2025 at 30,047 miles confirms that the core mechanical systems, including structural integrity, lighting, and emissions, met the required standards at that time. This trend is exceptionally stable, suggesting that the vehicle has been subjected to diligent maintenance or light usage throughout its recent history. With a total of 30,047 miles over an eight-year lifespan, the vehicle averages approximately 3,756 miles per annum. The mileage accumulation has remained remarkably steady, with roughly 4,000 miles added between each annual test. This consistent usage pattern avoids the risks often associated with long-term storage, such as seized brake components or perished rubber seals, which frequently plague low-mileage vehicles that sit idle for extended periods. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the condition of consumable components that may be nearing their service life despite the lack of MOT failures. While the test history is spotless, the age of the vehicle warrants a close look at the brake discs for signs of surface corrosion or pitting, as low-mileage cars often suffer from under-use of the braking system. Inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for any signs of perishing or fatigue, as these rubber and metal components deteriorate with time regardless of the distance covered. Confirm that the service history aligns with the manufacturer intervals, as the MOT only verifies a snapshot of safety-critical items and does not account for the condition of the engine oil, transmission fluid, or timing belt health.
