2017 Volkswagen Touareg 3.0L Diesel · VA17 CLJ

The most recent MOT on 2025-06-12 recorded a single minor defect: the nearside rear tyre was worn close to the legal limit (5.2.3 (e)). This indicates the tyre’s tread depth was approaching the minimum requirement, but no immediate safety risk was flagged. The vehicle passed the test, and no other defects were noted. Prior MOTs from 2021 to 2024 show no recorded defects, suggesting a generally stable condition over the past five years. The absence of issues in these tests implies the vehicle has not exhibited recurring mechanical problems, such as brake failures, suspension faults, or electrical issues. The only notable concern is the tyre wear, which appears isolated and not part of a broader pattern. The vehicle’s mileage of 70,866 miles over nine years equates to roughly 7,874 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage for its age. This suggests neither excessive wear nor prolonged under-use. However, the lack of high-mileage indicators (e.g., frequent brake replacements, engine wear) means the vehicle’s condition is not clearly linked to heavy usage. The trend in MOT results shows no worsening of defects over time.
