Our Verdict
Exercise caution before purchasing this
Given the recorded mileage of over 200,000 miles, your primary focus should be on verifying the service history, which cannot be confirmed through MOT records alone. Look for evidence of timing belt and water pump replacements, as these are critical maintenance items on the 1968cc diesel engine. Negotiate the price downwards to account for the high probability of upcoming heavy maintenance costs.
Ask the seller for proof of recent work regarding the suspension, specifically addressing the nearside front suspension arm ball joint play noted in the 2021 MOT. Because the last recorded MOT was in 2021, you must ensure the vehicle has a valid, current MOT certificate and check for any new advisories that have emerged since that test.
As a 2.0L diesel, fuel economy should be relatively efficient for a vehicle of this size, though this will depend on the engine's mechanical health. Tax and insurance groups for a 2007 Touran vary, but you should expect mid-range costs typical for a family MPV.
Maintenance costs are likely to be higher than average due to the vehicle's age and mileage. Components such as brakes, tyres, and suspension parts will require frequent attention. We estimate the annual running cost to be in the higher bracket for this class due to the potential for major component failure at this mileage.
A thorough inspection of the suspension is vital. The 2021 MOT highlighted play in the nearside front suspension arm ball joint; check that this, and all other bushings and joints, have been addressed. Inspect the tyres and brake pads closely, as these are the most common failure points for this model according to aggregate data.
Check the condition of the windscreen, as damage was noted in the previous MOT. Furthermore, given the high mileage, inspect the engine bay for any signs of oil leaks or excessive smoke, and listen for unusual noises from the turbocharger or diesel injectors, which are common areas of concern on high-mileage Volkswagen diesel engines.
This 2007 Volkswagen Touran has covered 207,958 miles as of its last recorded MOT in 2021, which is significantly higher than the model average of 8,715 miles per year. The vehicle is a 2.0L diesel, a powertrain often used for long-distance commuting, which explains the heavy usage. The MOT history shows specific issues with suspension components and windscreen damage, reflecting the wear expected on a vehicle of this age and distance.
Aggregate data for this model shows a 78.7% MOT pass rate, with common failures relating to tyres, brake pads, and headlamps.
