2016 Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0L Diesel · CE16 YFC

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the most recent MOT history. The September 2024 test at 33,656 miles returned a clean pass with no defects recorded, indicating that previous issues have been addressed. This follows a period of minor mechanical advisories regarding braking components and tyre wear, suggesting a trend of reactive maintenance rather than systemic neglect. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 2016 model, averaging approximately 3,366 miles per year. The data shows consistent, incremental growth from 12,309 miles in March 2019 to the current 33,656 miles in September 2024. While low mileage generally implies less wear on the drivetrain and engine, the infrequent use can sometimes lead to secondary issues such as tyre flat-spotting or battery degradation, though the MOT records do not specifically highlight these concerns. A prospective buyer should focus on the front axle and braking system during a physical inspection. The records from October 2022 and September 2023 both flagged front brake discs as being worn, pitted, or scored. Although the 2024 test shows no current defects, it is necessary to verify that the discs and pads were replaced and that the calipers are not sticking. The recurring advisory regarding front tyres feathering on the edges in 2022 and 2023 suggests a potential alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that may require checking to ensure even tyre wear moving forward.
