2018 Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0L Diesel · KM68 XKB

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status having passed its most recent MOT in November 2025 at 99,385 miles with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend appears stable following a period of minor neglect in late 2024. While the vehicle previously suffered a failure due to headlamp aim and tyre wear, these issues were rectified prior to the subsequent test, indicating the owner responds to MOT failures once they are flagged. At 99,385 miles, this Tiguan has averaged approximately 12,400 miles per year, which sits above the national average for a passenger vehicle. The data shows consistent usage, with nearly 15,000 miles covered between December 2023 and November 2024, and another 17,000 miles in the following year. This high mileage puts significant demand on drivetrain components, suspension bushings, and braking systems compared to lower-mileage examples of the same age. A buyer should prioritise a thorough inspection of the suspension geometry, given the recurring reports of inner-edge tyre wear noted in 2022 and 2024. Persistent uneven tyre wear often indicates alignment issues, worn control arms, or failing ball joints which may not be caught in a standard MOT test. You should also verify the condition of the brake discs and calipers for wear, as the high mileage increases the likelihood of thinning material or sticking pistons after years of heavy driving.
