2023 Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace Life TSI 1.5L Petrol · LC72 OHJ

The vehicle's most recent MOT history shows an improving trend following a failure in January 2026. The tester recorded a failure on 7 January 2026 due to a major defect involving the windscreen, where an obstruction significantly affected the driver's view through the swept area. This issue was resolved within 24 hours, as the vehicle achieved a pass on 8 January 2026 with no further defects or advisories noted. The recorded mileage of 40,612 miles indicates a high rate of use for a vehicle of this age. Averaging approximately 13,537 miles per year over its three-year lifespan suggests consistent motorway or long-distance driving rather than short urban trips. While the MOT record is relatively sparse due to the vehicle's age, the mileage accumulation implies higher wear on consumable components such as brake pads, tyres, and suspension bushes compared to lower-mileage examples. A prospective buyer should conduct a physical inspection of the windscreen and wiper assembly to ensure the obstruction noted in the January 2026 failure has been fully rectified and that the blades do not leave streaks. Given the higher than average mileage, a thorough check of the braking system, including disc thickness and pad wear, is advisable. It is also prudent to inspect the suspension components and tyre tread depths to assess the impact of the consistent annual mileage on these wear items.
