2018 Volkswagen Touran 1.6L Diesel · CY18 MLV

The 2018 Volkswagen Touran with 85,751 miles is currently roadworthy, as the most recent MOT on 2025-09-11 confirmed no defects. The maintenance trend shows stability over the past two years, with three consecutive passes in 2025, 2024, and 2023. The only anomaly was a failed test on 2024-02-06 at 71,780 miles, though no defects were recorded, suggesting a possible administrative error or minor non-compliance. No recurring issues were flagged in the history, indicating consistent upkeep. The vehicle’s mileage of 85,751 miles over eight years equates to an average of 10,719 miles annually, which aligns with typical usage. A notable gap exists between the 2023 test (52,887 miles) and the 2024 test (71,784 miles), reflecting a 18,897-mile increase in 12 months, which may indicate periods of heavy use or infrequent MOTs. However, the absence of defects in subsequent tests suggests no immediate mechanical degradation. The records are otherwise clean, with no advisories or critical failures. A buyer should inspect the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, as these components often degrade with age. The rear brakes, which were flagged in the 2024 failed test, warrant closer scrutiny for binding or uneven wear. Additionally, the exhaust system and underbody should be checked for corrosion, particularly if the vehicle has been exposed to harsh weather. While the MOT history shows no major concerns, physical inspection of these areas is essential to confirm the vehicle’s ongoing reliability.
