AI verdict CAUTION 67/100

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

This 2016 Skoda has 3 MOT tests on record with a 100% pass rate and 99,405 miles. Recurring tyre advisories and a recent oil leak advisory warrant careful inspection.

The vehicle shows high annual usage (18,951 mi/yr), but a significant 4-year MOT gap from Jan 2019 to Jul 2023 means mileage during this period is unverified.

Things to check

  • 4-year MOT gap (Jan 2019–Jul 2023) — mileage unverified during this period.
  • High annual mileage (18,951 mi/yr) — expect accelerated wear on components.
  • Recent oil leak advisory (Sep 2025) — requires immediate investigation and repair.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed — clean at last test
  • No MOT failures recorded across all 3 tests — good basic safety record.
  • Valid MOT until September 2026 — no immediate retesting required.
  • Euro NCAP 5-star safety rating (2024) — excellent safety credentials for its age.
