2015 Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0L Diesel · SV15 UGZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a successful MOT test in September 2025 at 89,906 miles. The maintenance trend shows a period of improvement following a significant mechanical failure in mid-2024. While the most recent test indicates the vehicle met all pass criteria, the history reveals that major suspension components required urgent attention a year ago to bring the car back into a compliant state. The recorded mileage of 89,906 miles over eleven years represents an average usage of approximately 8,173 miles per annum. This figure aligns with typical UK usage for a family SUV of this age. The data shows consistent operation, with roughly 6,400 miles covered between the 2023 and 2024 tests, and a further 5,600 miles recorded before the 2025 inspection. This regularity suggests the vehicle has not been subject to long periods of stationary which can lead to seal degradation or brake corrosion. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension assembly to verify the previous repairs. The August 2024 failure identified excessively worn bushes on both the nearside and offside front suspension arms, alongside corroded and seriously weakened lower rear suspension arms. Although the vehicle passed the subsequent test, the presence of structural corrosion on the rear arms in the past indicates the underbody may have been exposed to harsh environments. Check for any signs of fresh rust or rubber tearing in the remaining bushes to ensure the previous faults were addressed with quality components rather than temporary fixes.
