2014 Volkswagen Tiguan R Line Tdibluetech 4MSA 2.0L Heavy oil · Y900 DLH

The vehicle presents a clean roadworthiness profile based on the most recent MOT test conducted on 28 April 2025. At 113,967 miles, the tester passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the mechanical and safety-critical components met DVSA standards at the time of testing without requiring immediate corrective action. The recorded mileage of 113,967 miles over a twelve-year period averages to approximately 9,500 miles per year. This figure is consistent with typical annual usage patterns for a diesel SUV, suggesting the vehicle has not been subjected to excessive high-frequency use nor long periods of stagnation that often lead to seal degradation. The April 2025 test shows the car was in active use within the last year, providing a relatively fresh baseline for its current mechanical condition. Despite the clean test result, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on high-wear areas common to the Tiguan of this age and mileage. Particular attention must be paid to the front suspension bushes, control arms, and coil springs for signs of perished rubber or fractures, as these components often degrade after six thousand miles. Given the mileage, checking the brake discs and calipers for uneven wear or binding is also advisable to ensure the braking system remains responsive. The structural integrity of the chassis should be verified for any surface corrosion, particularly along the sills and mounting points, where moisture can accumulate over a decade. While the MOT record shows no current structural failures, a physical check of the underbody and exhaust system will confirm that the previous owners have maintained the vehicle against salt-induced rust.
