2019 Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0L Diesel · NAT 73R

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status following its most recent MOT test on 12 June 2025 at 42,540 miles, which resulted in zero defects. This indicates that the owner addressed the mechanical issues identified in the previous year. While the 2024 failure suggested a lapse in preventative maintenance, the clean sheet from the latest inspection suggests the vehicle is currently being maintained to a functional standard without immediate safety concerns. At 42,540 miles over seven years, the Tiguan averages approximately 6,000 miles per annum, which aligns with low-use patterns for a family SUV. The mileage progression shows consistent growth, with roughly 6,500 miles driven between May 2023 and June 2024, and another 6,800 miles between June 2024 and June 2025. This steady usage generally reduces the strain on the drivetrain and suspension components, though the record shows that the vehicle is susceptible to neglect despite the low low mileage. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system and tyres, as these show a history of recurring issues. The 2022 test flagged pitted rear brake discs and low tread, while the 2024 failure highlighted thin front pads and four tyres reaching the legal limit. This pattern suggests the owner tends to wait for an MOT failure before replacing consumable items rather than maintaining them on a scheduled service basis. Verify the current depth of the tyre treads and check for uneven wear or scoring on the brake discs to ensure the repairs made after 2024 were executed properly.
