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

This 2009 Skoda has 18 MOT tests on record with a 78% pass rate and 117,655 miles. The recurring advisories on critical components like tyres and suspension, combined with a 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating for a 2009 diesel SUV, present significant and unresolvable contradictions.

A critical 5-year mileage gap exists between Aug 2017 (238,323 mi) and Jun 2018 (138,835 mi), strongly suggesting potential odometer tampering.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: Odometer fraud signal: Mileage decreased between Aug 2017 (238,323 mi) and Jun 2018 (138,835 mi) — possible odometer tamper
  • Mileage decreased significantly between Aug 2017 (238,323 mi) and Jun 2018 (138,835 mi) — possible odometer tampering.
  • Dangerous brake failure recorded on 2023-07-13, indicating a serious and immediate safety hazard.
  • Recurring advisories on critical wear items like tyres (11 times) and suspension (3 times) across multiple tests.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2026-07-14, indicating current roadworthiness despite past issues.
  • Consistent annual mileage averaging 11,976 miles/year, suggesting regular use and maintenance.
  • No recurring major failures on the same system, indicating issues were addressed at the time.
  • The vehicle has a long, consistent MOT history, with all tests conducted in the UK.
