2018 Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0L Diesel · M1 UED

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the recent MOT history. The most recent inspection conducted in December 2025 at 83,846 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating that previous mechanical concerns have been addressed or resolved. This follows a trend of consistent testing where the vehicle meets safety standards, suggesting a reliable level of maintenance over the last three years. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,500 miles per year. Data shows a steady progression from 41,102 miles in January 2022 to 83,846 miles in December 2025. This regular usage suggests the car has been used for routine commuting rather than sitting for long periods, which is generally beneficial for the mechanical seals and rubber components. The intervals between tests remain annual, indicating the owner has adhered to the standard testing schedule. Close attention should be paid to specific components previously flagged by the tester. The January 2025 test at 75,577 miles identified a frayed or damaged nearside front seat belt, which requires a physical check to ensure the webbing has been replaced. Additionally, the 2022 advisory regarding thin rear brake pads indicates that the braking system is subject to regular wear, so a buyer should verify the current thickness of the pads and check discs for scoring or uneven wear. Given the mileage, a physical inspection of the suspension bushes and coil springs is also advisable to ensure no degradation has occurred since the last clean report.
