2021 Volkswagen Tiguan R-Line TSI Phev S-A 1.4L Hybrid electric (clean) · AV71 ULS

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent inspection in December 2025 at 35,347 miles. While the vehicle passed the test, the maintenance trend shows a slight decline in condition compared to the clean record established in December 2024. The transition from a defect-free test to multiple mechanical advisories indicates that components are beginning to show wear that will require monitoring to prevent future failure. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical low-use profiles, averaging approximately 7,000 miles per year over its five-year lifespan. Between the December 2024 test at 27,012 miles and the December 2025 test at 35,347 miles, the vehicle covered 8,335 miles. This steady accumulation suggests regular use rather than long periods of stagnation, which generally benefits to the health of rubber seals and braking components. A physical inspection must focus on the nearside and offside front shock absorbers due to the light misting of oil recorded in the 2025 test. While misting is not an immediate failure, it often precedes a total seal failure and subsequent leak. The buyer should also verify the offside rear tyre to ensure the previously noted nail was replaced or repaired and did not result in structural damage to the sidewall. Given the low mileage, the brake discs should be checked for surface corrosion or pitting which can occur on vehicles that are not driven frequently.
