2009 Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0L Diesel · DA59 ONO

The Volkswagen Tiguan presents a roadworthy status based on the most recent DVSA test, with a pass recorded on 18 October 2023 at 139,919 miles showing no defects. The maintenance trend appears stable across the available history, as every test from 2021 through 2023 resulted in a pass with no advisories or faults logged. The duplicate entry on 18 October 2023, showing both a fail and a pass at identical mileage with no defects recorded, points to an administrative retest rather than a mechanical concern. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a 2009 vehicle, averaging roughly 8,200 miles per year across its life. The records show 118,354 miles on 11 September 2021, rising only to 119,084 miles by 18 October 2022, then jumping to 139,919 miles by 18 October 2023. That final-year increase of over 20,800 miles suggests heavier use in the last twelve months before the latest test, though the sparse four-year record limits deeper trend analysis. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the car's age and the elevated final-year mileage. The clean MOT sheet means no corrosion, exhaust emissions failures, or structural integrity issues were flagged by testers, but the absence of advisories does not confirm component condition beneath the pass threshold. Given the lack of recorded faults, previous owners appear to have maintained basic test compliance, yet the wide gaps between tests leave wear on consumables and drivetrain components unverified. Prioritise a physical check of tyre tread depth, wiper blades, and underbody rust before purchase.
