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 18 MOT tests on record with a 83% pass rate and 15,077 miles. While it's an older vehicle, the recent MOT pass and low annual usage make it a viable purchase.

The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 4,754 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes in the 15,077 miles recorded over 18 years.

Things to check

  • Offside Rear Tyre tread depth below requirements (Jul 2025) — indicates past neglect of critical safety component.
  • Offside Front Outer Drive shaft joint boot split (Jul 2025) — a recent advisory on a suspension component.

Working in its favour

  • Consistent low annual mileage (4,754 mi/yr) suggests light use and less wear.
  • Recent MOT pass (Jul 2025) with no immediate failures or advisories.
  • No recurring major failures across the 9 MOT tests.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2024) — indicates good safety features.
