2022 Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0L Diesel · DF22 ACZ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, following a clean pass in its most recent inspection on 3 July 2026. At 26,304 miles, the tester recorded no defects, indicating that any previous mechanical or safety concerns have been addressed. This transition from minor advisories to a clean record suggests a proactive approach to maintenance by the current owner. The mileage pattern appears consistent with a four-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,500 miles per annum. However, the data shows a discrepancy between the July 2025 test at 31,372 miles and the July 2026 test recorded at 26,304 miles. This reversal of 5,068 miles over a year suggests a potential odometer recording error or a clerical mistake during the testing process that requires verification against the service history to ensure the integrity of the mileage data. A buyer should specifically inspect the nearside front tyre, as the July 2025 test flagged a nail in the edge. While the 2026 test passed without defects, the previous child seat previously obstructed the inspection of the adult seat belt, meaning a manual check of the belt tension and tensioners is necessary to ensure full compliance. Given the low annual mileage, a physical inspection of the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting is advised, as low-use vehicles can suffer from seized calipers or rusted components.
