This 2012 Skoda has 13 MOT tests on record with a 92% pass rate and 22,338 miles.
The vehicle recorded suspiciously low mileage (472 mi/yr equivalent) before April 2021, which is a major red flag for potential odometer fraud or a period of prolonged inactivity.
Things to check
- Mileage anomaly: The vehicle recorded suspiciously low mileage (472 mi/yr equivalent) before April 2021, indicating potential odometer fraud or prolonged inactivity.
- Early low usage: The vehicle was driven at only 472 miles per year equivalent for its first 3 years (Jan 2012 to Apr 2015), which is unusually low.
- Potential for hidden issues: The significant early mileage discrepancy suggests a period of prolonged inactivity or potential odometer fraud, which could lead to hidden mechanical problems.
- Risk of undisclosed damage: The prolonged period of very low mileage could mean the vehicle was stored for extended periods, potentially leading to hidden corrosion or other age-related issues.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2024): 5-star safety rating.
- Strong MOT record: 8 of 9 MOT tests passed, with no dangerous defects recorded, indicating a well-maintained vehicle.
- Consistent recent passes: The vehicle has consistently passed its MOT tests since 2021, showing good current maintenance and no recurring failures.
- Low insurance group: The vehicle is classified in a low insurance group (1–4), making it a cheap-to-insure option.
