2018 Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0L Diesel · VA18 LCZ

The 2018 Volkswagen Tiguan presents a clean roadworthiness status. The most recent test on 12 June 2025 at 114,971 miles recorded a pass with no defects, and the maintenance trend across the available history is stable with no advisories or failures logged at any stage. The recorded mileage sits high for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 14,371 miles per year. The DVSA data shows 48,522 miles at the October 2021 test, rising to 61,531 by October 2022, then a sharp jump to 92,318 by November 2023, and 114,971 by June 2025. The gap between the 2023 and 2025 entries leaves a 19-month void with no test on file, and the accumulation of over 22,000 miles in the final recorded interval points to sustained motorway or commuter use. The record itself is sparse, with four passes and zero faults noted across the board. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc wear given the high annual mileage and the unsupported period before the 2025 test. The absence of advisories does not rule out developing corrosion or tired consumables that a tester may not have flagged under current criteria. Prior owners appear to have kept the car to a basic pass standard with no deferred defects carried between tests. Given the mileage, verify service history for cambelt, DSG fluid, and tyre rotation before purchase.
