2018 Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0L Diesel · KT18 KVF

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent inspection conducted on 11 July 2025 at 44,632 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This streak indicates a stable maintenance trend where the mechanical and structural components have consistently met DVSA standards without recurring failures or escalating degradation over the last five years. The mileage profile is notably low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,580 miles per annum. Between the July 2021 test at 21,036 miles and the July 2025 test at 44,632 miles, the vehicle covered 23,596 miles. This low usage suggests light annual travel, which typically results in less wear on the drivetrain and suspension components. However, such low mileage mileage can sometimes lead to the drying of rubber-based components or the oxidation of brake hardware if the car has sat stationary for extended periods between tests. While the record shows no flagged mechanical faults, a physical inspection should focus on components affected by low-mileage use. A buyer should check for flat-spotting on tyres and potential cracking in sidewalls due to age. It is also prudent to inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion or seized calipers, which often occur when vehicles are not used frequently. Given the clean history, the structural integrity of the chassis appears sound, but verifying the condition of suspension bushes and fluid levels remains necessary to ensure the low mileage has not masked age-related perishability.
