Our Verdict
This is a generally sound buy for a 2021 Skoda Karoq with low-ish mileage, but the back-to-back MOT test in July 2025 warrants a simple explanation from the seller. Provided the failed test was an administrative or no-defect retest, the clean passing history supports a confident purchase.
Ask the seller for the MOT certificate or DVLA record explaining the 1 July 2025 failure with no defects recorded, as this is unusual and may simply be a paperwork or system retest the following day. Confirm the service history is complete for a 2021 petrol Karoq, as Skoda recommends annual or mileage-based servicing that protects the 1.5 TSI engine's timing belt and turbo components. Use the clean MOT record with no advisories as a negotiating point only if the price sits above typical market value for a 2021 Karoq with this mileage.
