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

This 2016 Skoda has 8 MOT tests on record with a 88% pass rate and 7,211 miles. While brakes and a shock absorber have recurring advisories, these are manageable wear items for a low-usage vehicle.

The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 5,897 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes in its 10-year history.

Things to check

  • Brake system advisories present in 7 of 8 MOT tests, indicating ongoing wear and tear.
  • Nearside Front Shock absorber advisory on 2021-06-16 escalated to a major failure by 2024-06-17.
  • Three tyre advisories on 2021-06-16 suggest a history of minor wear items needing attention.

Working in its favour

  • Clean MOT record with 7 passes and only 1 minor failure, demonstrating good overall maintenance.
  • Consistent low annual mileage (5,897 mi/yr) suggests light use and reduced wear on components.
  • No dangerous defects recorded in the MOT history, ensuring no immediate safety concerns.
  • Valid MOT until June 2026, providing peace of mind for the next two years.
