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

This 2015 Skoda has 11 MOT tests on record with a 73% pass rate and 34,442 miles. While mileage is consistent, the pattern of neglect suggests significant upcoming repair costs.

Mileage is high at 12,954 miles/year, but the trajectory is consistent with no anomalies, showing steady annual increases from 34,442 miles in Aug 2018 to 136,568 miles in Jul 2025.

Things to check

  • Recurring major failures: Tyres (7 advisories), Brakes (12 advisories), and Suspension (4 advisories) show chronic neglect.
  • Engine/Oil major failure on 2025-07-22 indicates a significant underlying mechanical issue.
  • Consistent high mileage (12,954 mi/yr) for a 2015 diesel will accelerate wear on all components.
  • Offside Front Track rod end ball joint excessive play on 2019-07-22 is a critical steering safety defect.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2026-07-14 provides immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
  • Consistent mileage trajectory with no anomalies, indicating genuine usage and no fraud.
  • No DANGEROUS defects remain unresolved from the most recent MOT test.
  • Euro NCAP 5-star safety rating (2024) confirms high safety standards for this model.
