Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace buying guide (Ireland, 2026)
What a used Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace costs in Ireland, how it does at the NCT, what goes wrong and what it costs to fix. Based on 145 for sale right now.
Our take on the Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace
A 2023 Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace typically advertises at €40,950 and a 2018 one at €21,950, so it loses roughly 12% of its value a year at that age. Most for sale are diesels (97%), which suit longer, regular drives; for mostly short trips a petrol is the safer buy. At the NCT (figures for all Volkswagen Tiguans, as the RSA doesn't list the Tiguan Allspace separately), the 2018–2020 cars do better than other cars the same year. The 2.0 diesel is the most common engine (100% of those with a known engine), and it usually lasts around 350k km.

Common Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace problems
Known weak spots to check before you buy, with typical Irish garage costs if the problem is there.
Timing belt history · €350–€700
Ask when the timing belt and water pump were last done (usually every 160,000 km or 5–6 years). No proof = budget for it.
Automatic gearbox health · €300–€2,500
Make sure the gear changes are smooth when warm, check for a gearbox warning light and ask if the gearbox oil was ever changed.
Engines and how long they last
| Engine | Usually lasts | Motor tax / year | For sale |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2.0 Diesel | ~350k km | ~€200 | 119 |
"Usually lasts" is the mileage these engines commonly reach before major work; service history matters more than the number.
