This 2003 Skoda has 16 MOT tests on record with a 62% pass rate and 24,859 miles. The vehicle is currently untaxed and has no valid MOT, making it unroadworthy and uninsurable.

The MOT history shows a 593,424-mile increase between 26 Mar 2013 and 29 Mar 2013, followed by a 589,152-mile decrease between 26 Mar 2013 and 29 Mar 2014, indicating severe odometer tampering.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: Odometer fraud signal: Mileage decreased between Mar 2013 (659,367 mi) and Mar 2014 (70,215 mi) — possible odometer tamperi
  • Mileage decreased by 589,152 miles between 26 Mar 2013 (659,367 mi) and 29 Mar 2014 (70,215 mi).
  • Mileage increased by 593,424 miles between 26 Mar 2013 (659,367 mi) and 29 Mar 2013 (74,183 mi).
  • Vehicle is currently untaxed and has no valid MOT, making it unroadworthy.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2024): 5-star safety rating.
  • Most recent MOT passed despite 6 historical failures
  • No positive MOT history can be identified due to the severe mileage anomalies and lack of valid MOT.
