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 72% pass rate and 30,803 miles. The low annual mileage and 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating are positive, but the vehicle's age and recurring issues warrant careful consideration.

The vehicle shows consistent, normal annual mileage averaging 7,049 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating genuine usage.

Things to check

  • Recurring suspension arm advisories across 5 tests (Oct 2019, 2020, 2022, 2023, 2025) suggest ongoing wear.
  • Major exhaust leak failure (Oct 2020) and insecure rear bumper failure (Oct 2023) indicate past neglect.
  • The 2024 MOT gap, combined with SORN status, raises questions about recent maintenance and roadworthiness.
  • The 2014-10-29 test shows two tyre advisories and a headlamp failure, indicating reactive maintenance.

Working in its favour

  • Consistent, normal annual mileage averaging 7,049 miles/year, well below UK average.
  • Recent clean MOT pass on 2025-06-01, showing current roadworthiness despite past issues.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2024) indicates a well-designed and safe vehicle.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage manipulation in the provided MOT history.
