2014 Volkswagen Touareg 3.0L Diesel · CA54 RLE

The 2014 Volkswagen Touareg presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 6 October 2025 at 70,689 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken run of clean results since October 2022. The owner has clearly kept the vehicle to a standard that satisfies annual statutory testing without accruing advisories on brake discs, suspension bushes, exhaust emissions, or structural integrity. Recorded mileage sits at 70,689 against an eleven-year age, equating to roughly 5,900 miles per year. The test on 5 October 2022 captured 60,507 miles; by 27 September 2024 the odometer read 66,821, and the October 2025 test showed 70,689. Annual accumulation held near 3,000 to 4,000 miles, confirming light use. A single anomaly appears on 5 October 2023, when the tester issued a fail at 64,000 miles with no defects listed, reversed the next day with a pass at 64,001 miles. This suggests an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault. The clean record gives no recurring faults to track, so no worsening pattern exists across consumables or major assemblies. Low mileage and a one-day fail with zero defects imply the previous keeper avoided neglect but may have allowed long stationary periods. Standing time can age tyres, seizes calipers, and promotes underbody corrosion even when tests stay clear. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of coil springs, subframe mounts, and brake calipers for binding after storage. Check tyre sidewalls for perishing and measure tread, since the MOT offers no advisory history to warn of wear. Verify the 2023 fail reason with DVSA to exclude a suppressed defect, then confirm structural members are free of rust before purchase.
