2013 Volkswagen Touran 1.6L Diesel · GS10 CAB

The 2025‑10‑17 MOT at 108,522 miles recorded a pass with no defects, confirming current roadworthiness. The record shows a pattern of minor, resolvable issues that have not recurred in the latest test, indicating a stable maintenance history rather than worsening neglect. At 13 years the vehicle averages 8,348 miles per year, a figure consistent with typical usage for a 2013 Touran. The mileage rose from 69,435 miles in August 2020 to 89,710 miles by October 2024, a 20,275‑mile increase over 4.5 years, and then jumped a further 18,812 miles to the present, suggesting periods of heavier use or longer intervals between tests. From 2018 to 2020 the increments were smaller, around 5,000 miles per year, showing a relatively clean record with no large unexplained gaps. A buyer should therefore inspect the offside rear suspension arm for the corrosion noted in the 2024 test, checking that the bushings and coil springs remain sound and that no binding is evident in the rear brakes. The cut on the offside front tyre and the wear‑close‑to‑legal‑limit condition on several earlier tyres indicate that tyre condition should be verified, especially the tread depth and any edge wear. Recurrent wear of the front and rear brake discs, pitting, and the appearance of worn pads below 1.5 mm in earlier tests demand a close examination of disc thickness, pad wear, and the condition of the brake lines. Finally, the structural rust on the suspension arm and the missing rear passenger seat noted in 2022 suggest a need to assess overall chassis integrity and verify that any previous advisories have been fully remedied.
