2022 Volkswagen Tiguan Elegance TSI 4motion SA
CarHunch analysed 305 real MOT records for the 2022 Volkswagen Tiguan Elegance TSI 4motion SA. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
This 2022 Tiguan is a genuinely reliable performer, with a 95.3% first-time pass rate that sits well above the UK average of 80%—and the dangerous defect rate of 2.6% is low enough not to worry about. The fleet averages just 0.05 failures per vehicle and 0.7 advisories, suggesting owners are finding very little to fix.
At 23,683 miles average, these cars are still early in their ownership lives, so this strong result reflects a vehicle that's been trouble-free from the start rather than one that's been tested over time. Stick with regular servicing intervals and you're unlikely to encounter anything unexpected at MOT time.
What to check before buying a 2022 Volkswagen Tiguan Elegance TSI 4motion SA
Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.
- 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
- 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
- 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
- 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
