2019 Volkswagen Tiguan Match TDI 2.0L Diesel · NG19 XEC

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a pattern of reactive rather than proactive upkeep. While the most recent test in April 2026 at 80,270 miles passed with only a minor advisory regarding a damaged offside rear tyre, the history reveals recurring failures to address safety-critical consumables. The transition from multiple failures in 2024 and 2025 to a pass suggests the previous owners only addressed defects once they were legally flagged during the testing process. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical UK usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 11,500 miles per year. Between April 2024 and April 2025, the vehicle covered 9,300 miles, followed by another 11,898 miles in the year leading up to the 2026 test. This steady mileage suggests the engine has been operated regularly, which is generally beneficial for diesel components like the particulate filter, but it justifies the consistent wear on tyres and suspension components seen in the records. A buyer must conduct a close physical inspection of the tyres specifically, as the record highlights multiple instances of low tread depth, structural sidew damage, and perishing rubber. The 2024 failure regarding the supplementary restraint system warning lamp indicates a previous airbag or seatbelt fault that should be verified as fully resolved to ensure the safety systems function correctly in an impact. Additionally, the recurring mention of tyre pressure light issues in 2024 suggests a check for slow leaks or faulty sensors that may not have been properly rectified.
