2009 SKODA YETI2.0L Diesel

The Skoda Yeti presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 27 October 2025 at 197,033 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior annual tests from 2022 to 2024 also passed cleanly. The only blemish is a failed test on 12 September 2023 at 177,812 miles that recorded no defects, immediately followed by a pass six days later at 177,822 miles, indicating a likely administrative or retest anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. Mileage progression sits close to typical use for a 17 year old vehicle, averaging roughly 11,590 miles per year. The records show 172,167 miles in September 2022, 177,822 by September 2023, 184,309 in September 2024, and 197,033 by October 2025. Annual accumulation stayed between 5,500 and 12,700 miles with no sudden jumps or standing gaps. The clean advisory history across all tests suggests the previous owner kept basic consumables and emissions within limits, though the absence of advisories at this mileage is unusual and warrants verification. A buyer should still inspect structural integrity and corrosion on sills, subframes, and suspension mounting points given the age and 197,033 miles. Although no tester flagged worn suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake disc lipping, components at this mileage are near end of life and may fail soon after sale without warning. Check the exhaust emissions system and brake caliper operation in person, since binding calipers or deteriorating flexi hoses would not always show on a pass with no defects. The clean record implies reasonable care, but high mileage Yetis commonly develop stealth corrosion and worn dampers that a road test will expose beyond the DVSA data.
