This 2005 Skoda has 14 MOT tests on record with a 86% pass rate and 27,960 miles. This critical data inconsistency makes a reliable assessment impossible and raises serious concerns about roadworthiness.
The vehicle shows normal usage with 10,717 miles/year, averaging 27,960 miles over 21 years, with no suspicious drops or spikes.
Things to check
- MOT status is 'Not valid' with expiry 2020-11-30 — vehicle is currently unroadworthy.
- First MOT test on 2008-06-06 was 3 years late, indicating potential non-compliance history.
- No MOT history available for the 2005–2008 period, a significant data gap for a 21-year-old car.
- The 2020-11-30 MOT expiry date is highly unusual for a 2005 vehicle, suggesting a potential administrative error or long-term non-compliance.
Working in its favour
- Single MOT pass on 2019-05-30 with no failures recorded, indicating a clean test.
- Consistent, normal annual mileage of 10,717 miles/year, suggesting regular use.
- No recurring failures or dangerous defects found in the single MOT test.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2024) indicates a strong safety record for its age.
