2017 Volkswagen Tiguan R-Line TDI BMT 4MOTION 2.0L Diesel · EW60 ART

The vehicle presents a clean roadworthiness status based on the most recent certification. As of 19 November 2025 at 117,880 miles, the Tiguan passed its MOT with no defects or advisories recorded. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the owner has successfully maintained the vehicle to a standard that meets all minimum safety and environmental requirements without failure. The recorded mileage of 117,880 miles over a nine-year period reflects an annual average of approximately 13,000 miles. This is slightly above the UK national average for older diesel vehicles, suggesting consistent long-distance use rather than long periods of standing. While the data set provided is sparse, the lack of advisories in the 2025 test suggests that the vehicle is not currently suffering from immediate mechanical neglect or rapid component degradation. Given the high cumulative mileage, a buyer must prioritize a physical inspection of high-wear mechanical components that do not always trigger an MOT failure. Focus on the front suspension control arm bushes, shock absorbers, and coil springs for signs of fatigue or tearing, as these are common failure points on high-mileage SUVs. The braking system should be checked for uneven pad wear or binding calipers, and the 4MOTION drivetrain should be monitored for any fluid leaks or unusual noises from the transfer case.
