2014 Skoda Yeti 2.0L Diesel · DC14 AAV

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted in June 2022 at 59,411 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, indicating that up to that point, the previous owners maintained the car to a standard that avoided immediate mechanical failure. The absence of recurring faults across the five recorded tests suggests that the vehicle has not suffered from chronic neglect regarding its primary mechanical components or structural integrity. The mileage pattern is notably low for a 2014 registration, averaging approximately 5,000 miles per year. There is a significant gap in data between the 2017 test at 10,516 miles and the April 2018 test at 24,825 miles, during which the vehicle covered over 14,000 miles in thirteen months. Since the 2020 test, the car has covered an additional 16,446 miles over two years. This low annual usage generally implies less wear on the drivetrain, engine, and suspension bushings compared to high-mileage examples of the same age. Despite the clean record, a physical inspection must focus on components affected by age rather than just distance. Low-mileage vehicles often suffer from dry-rotted rubber components and perished seals due to periods of infrequent use. A buyer should check the brake discs for corrosion and the calipers for binding, and inspect the suspension control arm bushes for cracking. Since the last recorded MOT was over three years ago, the vehicle is currently overdue for a test, and a fresh inspection is mandatory to ensure no new fluid leaks or structural corrosion has developed during the extended period of unrecorded use.
