2020 Skoda Octavia SE Technology TSI 1.5L Petrol · BT70 BMY

The 2025‑10‑13 MOT at 66,279 miles passed without any defects, confirming that the vehicle presently meets roadworthiness standards; however, the recurring tyre wear noted in the 2024 and 2025 tests shows a pattern of deteriorating consumable condition rather than worsening mechanical health. The recorded mileage of 66,279 miles at an age of six years equates to an average annual usage of roughly 11,000 miles, which is typical for this model. Mileage rose from 48,145 miles in the October 2023 test to 57,441 miles in the October 2024 test, an increase of 9,296 miles in eleven months, and then to 66,279 miles in the October 2025 test, another 8,838 miles in the following eleven months, indicating steady, high‑intensity use without significant periods of inactivity. A buyer should therefore inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear or binding, examine the brake discs and calipers for scoring or sticking, verify tyre tread depth and the condition of sidewalls for perishing cracks, and check for any structural rust or damage to the chassis, exhaust system, and structural components indicated by previous advisories. While the vehicle presently satisfies MOT criteria, the repeated tyre defects suggest possible alignment or suspension issues that merit close verification before purchase, and any outstanding advisories should be confirmed as resolved.
