Best Year to Buy?

Of the years with at least 100 tests, the 2020 model has the highest MOT pass rate at 91%, while the 2003 model has the lowest at 70%. The 2022 scores 92%, but cars from 2022 weren't due their first routine MOT until 2025, so its figure isn't compared here. Newer cars usually pass more often simply because they are younger, so compare years of a similar age.

Buying a Used 2022 Volkswagen Touran

At 4 years old, the Volkswagen Touran offers good value with plenty of life remaining. Most manufacturer warranties will have expired, so a pre-purchase inspection is worth the cost.
