2021 Volkswagen Tiguan R TSI 4MOTION S-A 2.0L Petrol · YD71 MPX

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile, with the most recent MOT on 01 September 2025 at 66,795 miles resulting in a clean pass. This record indicates that the car is currently in a roadworthy condition with no outstanding defects or advisories logged by the testing station. The absence of recurring mechanical failures suggests that the vehicle has been subjected to consistent upkeep, providing a reliable baseline for its current mechanical state. The recorded mileage of 66,795 miles over a five-year period equates to an average of approximately 13,359 miles per annum. This rate of accumulation is notably higher than the typical UK average, confirming that the vehicle has seen significant motorway or long-distance usage rather than short, stop-start urban cycles. The test history is remarkably concise, featuring only a single failure on 28 August 2024 at 57,314 miles, which was rectified immediately before a successful retest the following day. This sequence implies a minor administrative or technical oversight rather than a systemic mechanical failure. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on high-wear components typical of a vehicle with this mileage profile. While the MOT history is clean, the drivetrain and suspension systems have covered substantial ground, so verify the condition of the suspension bushes and check for any play in the wheel bearings. Inspect the brake discs and pads for signs of thinning, as these consumables will have reached the end of their service life given the high mileage. Finally, confirm that the DSG transmission shifts smoothly through all gears, as the high-performance nature of the R model places increased demand on the drivetrain during sustained high-mileage use.
