2018 Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0L Diesel · FN68 FLL

The Volkswagen Tiguan presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 19 June 2025 at 81,670 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean results since 2022. The vehicle shows no worsening faults and no recurring advisories across its history. Annual mileage averages around 10,200 miles, typical for an eight-year-old car of this type. The records show steady use: 42,040 miles at the June 2022 tests, 58,296 miles by May 2023, 70,246 miles by June 2024, and 81,670 miles by June 2025. The only anomaly is a failed entry logged on 1 June 2022 at 42,040 miles with no defects recorded, immediately followed by a pass on the same day at identical mileage, suggesting an administrative or process error at the testing station rather than a mechanical fault. Given the absence of any flagged wear on brake discs, suspension bushes, coil springs, exhaust emissions, or structural corrosion, the Tiguan appears to have been maintained to a reasonable standard. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of the underbody for hidden rust and verify the condition of consumables such as tyres and wiper blades, as these are not always captured where no advisory is raised. The clean MOT trail offers reasonable assurance, but DVSA records alone do not confirm service history. Inspect the cambelt interval, fluid changes, and proof of routine maintenance before purchase, since the test data shows compliance rather than evidence of proactive care.
