2012 Volkswagen Tiguan Sport TDI 4MOTION 2.0L Diesel · WN12 KWM

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness, evidenced by five consecutive MOT passes without any recorded failures. The most recent inspection conducted on 29 March 2026 at 134,958 miles passed with no defects or advisories noted. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the previous owners have consistently maintained the vehicle to meet DVSA safety standards. The absence of advisories across the last five years suggests that mechanical and structural components have remained in good condition between tests. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for a 14-year-old diesel, averaging approximately 9,640 miles per year. Between February 2022 at 104,195 miles and March 2026 at 134,958 miles, the vehicle covered 30,763 miles, representing a steady usage pattern of roughly 7,700 miles annually during that period. This regular operation prevents the risks associated with long periods of standing, such as seal degradation or brake caliper seizing. The data aligns with typical expectations for a SUV of this age, suggesting predictable wear on the 4MOTION drivetrain system. Despite the clean digital record, a buyer should perform a physical inspection of high-mileage components that the MOT does not fully test. At over 134,000 miles, suspension bushes and coil springs should be checked for signs of cracking or premature wear. The buyer should also inspect the chassis for corrosion, particularly around the rear and exhaust mounting, as these are common areas for vehicles of this era. Given the mileage, verifying the service history regarding the timing belt and checking for oil leaks around the turbocharger is essential to ensure the mechanical health matches the positive MOT history.
