2017 Volkswagen Tiguan 1.4L Petrol · PR11 CCE

The Volkswagen Tiguan presents as roadworthy following the most recent MOT pass on 7 August 2025 at 69,415 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable across the available history, with every pass showing a clean sheet and no advisories carried forward. The single failure on 6 August 2025 at 69,399 miles is anomalous, as the tester recorded no defects yet the vehicle failed; this suggests an administrative or documentation issue rather than a mechanical fault, given the immediate pass one day later. The mileage pattern sits at roughly 7,713 miles per year against a nine-year lifespan, which is typical for the age. From the April 2022 test at 44,706 miles to the April 2023 test at 52,152 miles the car covered 7,446 miles, then 9,744 miles to the August 2024 test at 61,896 miles, and 7,519 miles to the August 2025 test at 69,415 miles. The record shows a consistent, moderate annual accumulation with no sudden spikes or prolonged dormant periods, and the sparse five-entry history contains no flagged corrosion, suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions concerns. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion given the vehicle's age, as the MOT record does not capture latent rust outside test-day visibility. The clean advisory history implies previous owners kept basic upkeep current, but the unexplained 2025 failure warrants confirmation that the V5C and DVSA records align before purchase. Priority checks should cover brake caliper operation, coil springs, and tyre sidewall condition, though no test data demands urgent intervention.
