2016 Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0L Diesel · SP10 ACE

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness based on a consistently clean MOT history. The most recent test conducted on 10 February 2026 at 57,506 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This completes a five-year trend of perfect passes where the vehicle has not failed a single mechanical or structural test. The lack of recorded faults suggests a stable maintenance regime and a proactive approach to addressing minor issues. The mileage pattern is notably low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,750 miles per year. Between January 2022 at 25,417 miles and February 2026 at 57,506 miles, the vehicle covered 32,089 miles, indicating consistent but light usage. This low annual mileage typically reduces wear on high-stress components like the engine, gearbox, and suspension bushings. However, low-mileage vehicles can sometimes suffer from degradation of rubber components, perished seals, or surface surface corrosion on brake discs if the car has sat stationary for extended periods. While the digital record is flawless, a physical inspection should focus on components susceptible to low-mileage use. A buyer should check for flat spots on tyres or seized brake calipers, as infrequent use can lead to uneven wear. The sidewalls of the tyres require scrutiny for age-related cracking, as rubber outlives tread despite sufficient tread depth. Given the lack of advisories in previous years, the structural integrity of the chassis appears sound, but a visual check of the underbody for unexpected corrosion remains standard practice.
