2012 Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0L Diesel · GD12 EOV

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a remarkably stable maintenance history over the last five years. The most recent MOT conducted in February 2026 at 118,940 miles passed with no defects recorded, maintaining a trend of clean test sheets dating back to 2022. This consistency suggests that the previous owners have proactively addressed mechanical requirements and that the vehicle does not currently suffer from systemic failures or structural degradation. The mileage pattern is exceptionally consistent for a 14-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,500 miles per annum. Between the January 2022 test at 74,617 miles and the February 2026 test at 118,940 miles, the vehicle covered roughly 44,000 miles. This steady accumulation indicates regular use rather than long periods of stagnation, which is often beneficial for engine seals, suspension components, and brakes. The intervals between tests remain largely annual, reflecting a disciplined approach to vehicle upkeep. While the MOT history shows no failures or advisories, a physical inspection should focus on age-related wear that stationary testing does not always capture. A buyer should examine the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these components often perish after fourteen years regardless of low mileage. Given the age, checking for surface corrosion on the underside and inspecting the integrity of the brake lines remains prudent to ensure the long-term reliability of the Tiguan.
