Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

This Volkswagen Tiguan is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 18 June 2026 at 107,501 miles with no defects recorded. The overall maintenance trend is stable. The vehicle has a clean record of passes for the last three years, suggesting that any immediate mechanical failures are being addressed promptly to maintain legal standards. The mileage is high for an eight year old vehicle, averaging roughly 13,438 miles per year. A significant jump in usage occurred between August 2023 and July 2024, where the odometer rose from 67,766 to 83,565 miles. This period of heavy use coincides with the only failure in the vehicle's history. The MOT record reveals a recurring issue with front tyre maintenance. In August 2023, the tester flagged both front tyres as worn close to the legal limit. By July 2024, the vehicle failed its test at 83,564 miles due to deep cuts in the ply or cords of both front tyres. This pattern indicates a previous tendency to neglect consumable wear until it became a critical failure. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension bushes and brake discs, as these components typically show significant wear at 107,000 miles. While the MOT history is devoid of structural corrosion or suspension failures, the high mileage suggests these areas are now due for scrutiny. Check for uneven tyre wear to determine if the vehicle requires a wheel alignment or if the previous tyre issues stemmed from poor tracking.
