AI verdict AVOID 51/100

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 26,004 miles. While many advisories were addressed, the repeated nature of these failures suggests a history of reactive maintenance.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 9,036 miles/year, with a notable drop in annual usage from 2019 to 2022 (5,480 miles in 2022), but no anomalies or decreases.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Sep 2024): Offside Front Tyre has ply or cords exposed (5.2.3 (d) (ii))
  • Recurring tyre failures (Sep 2012, Sep 2025) and advisories (Sep 2021, Sep 2025) indicate a history of poor maintenance.
  • Recurring suspension advisories (Sep 2021, Sep 2024) and coil spring corrosion (Sep 2021) suggest ongoing structural wear.
  • Recurring brake disc advisories (Sep 2021, Sep 2025) and shock absorber corrosion (Sep 2021, Sep 2024) point to a pattern of neglect.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2026-09-27, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or spikes.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering.
  • Immediate retests for failures show issues were addressed.
