2018 Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0L Diesel · JB11 ROW

The Volkswagen Tiguan presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 1 August 2025 at 61,708 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and this clean result follows four consecutive annual passes with no advisories. The vehicle shows no worsening mechanical condition across its recorded history. Annual mileage sits at roughly 7,700 miles per year against an eight-year lifespan, which is typical for the age. The records show steady accumulation: 32,674 miles in February 2022, 39,601 by February 2023, 47,579 by February 2024, then 58,533 in February 2025 and 61,708 by August 2025. The gap between the February and August 2025 tests covers only 3,175 miles in six months, indicating light recent use. No sparse or missing entries appear in the sequence. No recurring faults, advisories, or structural concerns emerge from the MOT data, so the history gives no specific component warnings for a buyer. The clean sheet across suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, corrosion, and exhaust emissions suggests previous owners kept basic upkeep current. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of underbody structural integrity and suspension wear, as a pass with no defects does not measure remaining tyre depth or consumable life beyond test-day limits. Given the low-stress mileage and unbroken pass record, the Tiguan reflects disciplined ownership rather than deferred maintenance. The absence of any failure or advisory over five tests implies routine servicing kept pace with use. Verify service book stamps and confirm timing belt interval compliance before purchase, since the MOT record alone cannot evidence internal drivetrain care.
