2018 Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0L Diesel · GL18 XEX

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a stable and consistent maintenance history. The most recent MOT test conducted on 11 May 2026 at 41,328 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This string of clean sheets across the last five annual tests indicates that the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard and has not suffered from recurring mechanical failures or structural degradation to date. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent and reflects a low-use profile, averaging approximately 5,166 miles per year over its eight-year life. Between the May 2022 test at 25,275 miles and the May 2026 test at 41,328 miles, the vehicle covered 16,053 miles. This steady accumulation suggests low wear and tear on the drivetrain components and braking systems compared to average-run examples. The lack of significant mileage gaps between tests confirms the car has been used regularly rather than left stationary for long periods of neglect. While the digital record is flawless, a physical inspection should focus on specific areas common to low-mileage vehicles that may sit intermittently. Check the rubber-based components, such as suspension bushes, axle boots, and tyre sidewalls, for premature cracking or dry rot from age rather than wear. Examine the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, as low-use vehicles can sometimes develop surface rust if not used frequently enough. Given the clean history, the vehicle appears to be a well-cared-for example of its model.
