2016 Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0L Diesel · KH12 LED

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status following a period of clean testing results. The most recent inspection conducted on 28 January 2026 at 71,040 miles was passed with no recorded defects, indicating that the vehicle currently meets all statutory requirements. While a failure was noted earlier in January 2025, the immediate retest on the same day suggests the previous owner was proactive in rectifying any identified faults quickly. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a low-mileage profile, averaging approximately 7,100 miles per year. Between the January 2023 test at 52,066 miles and the January 2026 test at 71,040 miles, the vehicle covered 18,974 miles. This steady accumulation suggests regular use rather than long periods of stagnation, which is generally beneficial for seals and rubber components. The lack of escalating mileage advisories over the last three years implies a high standard of preventative maintenance and consistent mechanical upkeep. Given the clean nature of the recent MOT records, a physical inspection should focus on components subject to age-related degradation rather than wear. A buyer should check the condition of suspension bushes and control arms for cracking, as low-mileage vehicles can suffer from rubber hardening over time. Additionally, inspecting the brake discs for surface corrosion or binding calipers is advisable, as the record does not explicitly rule out minor issues that might manifest between annual tests.
