2019 Volkswagen Touareg 3.0L Petrol · VR51 AND

The vehicle remains roadworthy as evidenced by a consistent history of passing results through to the most recent test in December 2025 at 44,672 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable but reveals a recurring pattern of neglect regarding front-end tyre condition. While the vehicle avoids major mechanical failures, the persistent presence of advisories for uneven tyre wear suggests a lack of proactive attention to alignment issues between annual inspections. The mileage profile is consistent with a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,400 miles per year. Between the December 2022 test at 24,530 miles and the December 2025 test at 44,672 miles, the vehicle covered 20,142 miles, indicating steady and moderate usage. This low annual mileage generally reduces the strain on the drivetrain and engine components compared to higher averages, though it can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber components and brake hardware if the car sits stationary for extended periods. A buyer should prioritise a thorough inspection of the front suspension and alignment due to the recurring offside front tyre wear on the edge noted in 2022, 2024, and 2025. This specific fault often stems from worn control arm bushes, ball joints, or incorrect tracking geometry that has not been addressed despite the repeated tester flags. The previous owner failed to rectify the underlying cause of the tyre wear, merely replacing the tyres themselves. Check the brake discs for corrosion and the lower chassis to ensure no structural corrosion has developed given the low-usage intervals.
