SKODA YETI2016 · 1.2L Petrol

The 2016 Skoda Yeti presents a clean and stable maintenance trend, with the most recent MOT on 2025-06-26 at 47,876 miles passing with zero defects. This marks five consecutive flawless annual tests, indicating consistent upkeep and no emerging mechanical or structural concerns. The record suggests a vehicle that has been well maintained, with no recurring faults or advisories to flag. The mileage pattern is notably low for a vehicle of this age, averaging roughly 4,788 miles per year. Between 2024-06-25 and 2025-06-26, the car covered just 6,602 miles, and the prior year saw 7,118 miles added. This gradual accumulation points to light, regular use rather than long periods of standing, which is favourable. Low annual mileage reduces wear on consumables and drivetrain components, though it does not eliminate the need for age-related checks on rubber seals, bushes, and fluid condition. Despite the clean MOT history, a buyer should still inspect the underside for corrosion, particularly around suspension mounting points, subframes, and wheel arches, as these can develop even on low-mileage vehicles as they approach ten years old. The suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers deserve close attention, as age-related deterioration can occur independently of mileage. Tyre condition and date codes should also be verified, since older tyres with adequate tread can still present a safety risk if the rubber has perished. The braking system, including discs, pads, and calipers, warrants a physical check for uneven wear or binding, even though no defects have been flagged. Exhaust emissions have remained compliant across all tests, but a cold-start inspection can reveal early signs of catalyst or lambda sensor degradation. Overall, the record paints a picture of a carefully maintained vehicle, but a pre-purchase inspection focused on age-related wear rather than mileage-related wear remains a sensible precaution.
