AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2008 Skoda has 19 MOT tests on record with a 79% pass rate and 37,799 miles. The car's age and mileage pattern suggest a low-usage vehicle with potential age-related wear.

The mileage trajectory is consistent with normal UK usage, averaging 7,092 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or round numbers, though a significant drop in annual mileage occurred between 2019 and 2021.

Things to check

  • 2024 MOT gap: No MOT recorded between Nov 2023 and Jan 2025 — investigate reason.
  • Recurring suspension advisories: Nearside Front Suspension arm rubber bush deteriorated (May 2012) — indicates ongoing wear.
  • Recurring tyre advisories: Offside Front Tyre has ply or cords exposed (May 2012) — points to a pattern of wear.
  • Low annual mileage 2019-2021: Significant drop in usage (4,598–7,101 miles/year) suggests periods of inactivity.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2027-01-09: Offers peace of mind for over three years of roadworthiness.
  • Consistent mileage: Average 7,092 miles/year aligns with typical UK usage, not excessive.
  • No recent major failures: Latest MOT (Jan 2026) passed with only a minor tyre advisory.
  • Euro NCAP 5-star safety rating: Excellent safety credentials for a 2008 Skoda.
