2010 Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0L Diesel · P3 HRO

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness, maintaining a remarkably stable maintenance trend over the last five years. The most recent inspection conducted on 17 November 2025 at 145,899 miles returned no defects or advisories. This clean sheet suggests that the previous owners have proactively addressed mechanical and safety requirements before they resulted in MOT failures, maintaining a streak of passes without recorded faults. The mileage accumulation is exceptionally consistent for a 16-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,119 miles per year. Between November 2021 and November 2025, the vehicle covered 24,912 miles, showing a steady usage pattern of roughly 6,200 miles annually. This regularity indicates that the car has been used consistently rather than sitting for long periods, which often helps prevent internal seal degradation and brake corrosion. The lack of sudden spikes in mileage suggests a predictable usage profile that aligns well with standard preventative service intervals. While the MOT history is devoid of recorded faults, a physical inspection should focus on common wear points for a Tiguan of this age and mileage. A buyer must inspect the front suspension components for perished bushes and control arm wear, as these often degrade after 100,000 miles. Given the age of the vehicle, checking for structural corrosion on the sills and rear subframe is essential, as the MOT only identifies rust once it becomes significant. Additionally, verifying the condition of the brake calipers and the thickness of the discs will ensure that the clean electronic record reflects the actual mechanical state of the braking system.
