Our Verdict
A solid option for those seeking a high-mileage diesel SUV. The recent MOT history shows a consistent pattern of passing without defects, suggesting recent compliance with UK road standards.
Given the 1968cc diesel engine and the mileage exceeding 100,000 miles, your primary focus should be on verifying the service history. Specifically, check for evidence of timing belt and water pump replacements, as these are critical maintenance items for this engine type at this mileage interval.
When negotiating, ask for documentation regarding the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) status and any recent clutch or dual-mass flywheel work. Because the vehicle has recently passed several MOTs with no defects, it appears to be meeting basic safety standards, but this does not replace the need for a thorough mechanical inspection of the turbocharger and fuel system.
As a 2.0L diesel, this Tiguan is designed for efficiency on longer journeys, though fuel costs will depend on your annual mileage. Tax bands for 2015 models vary based on specific CO2 emissions, so verify the exact rate via the DVLA portal.
Insurance groups for this model typically sit in the mid-range. Maintenance costs for a Volkswagen of this age and mileage should be budgeted for higher than a smaller hatchback, particularly regarding suspension components and diesel-specific engine maintenance. Expect annual running costs to be moderate if driven primarily on motorways.
The MOT history shows a failure in June 2023, though no specific defect was recorded in the summary provided; you should ask the seller for the specific reason for that failure to ensure it was rectified properly. Check the brake pads, discs, and tyres, as these are common wear items that often appear as advisories.
Inspect the underside for any signs of oil leaks or exhaust corrosion, and listen for any unusual noises from the diesel engine during a cold start. Given the mileage, pay close attention to the condition of the suspension bushings and shock absorbers.
This 2015 black Volkswagen Tiguan has covered 108,613 miles since its first registration in January 2015. The MOT history is notable for having no recorded defects in its four most recent tests, following a single failure in June 2023. While the mileage is high, the vehicle has maintained a consistent testing frequency.
