2017 Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0L Diesel · YC67 EXT

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistent record of clean passes over several years. The most recent inspection conducted in September 2025 at 30,663 miles returned no recorded defects or advisories. This stability indicates a positive maintenance trend where the previous owners have successfully maintained the vehicle to meet DVSA safety and emissions standards without any recurring mechanical or structural failures. The mileage profile is notably low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,400 miles per year. Between September 2021 at 16,268 miles and September 2025 at 30,663 miles, the car covered only 14,395 miles. This low annual usage suggests light operation, which typically reduces the wear on the drivetrain, engine, and suspension. However, long periods of stationary time or short trips can sometimes lead to brake corrosion or the degradation of rubber-based components. Since the MOT record shows no history of faults, an in-person inspection should focus on components affected by low-mileage age. A buyer should check for signs of dry rotting on the tyres and suspension bushes, which can perish regardless of tread depth. It is also worth inspecting the brake discs for surface pitting or rust caused by infrequent use. Additionally, verifying the service history is essential to ensure that oil and fluids were changed based on time intervals rather than mileage to prevent internal engine degradation.
