2014 Skoda Octavia 1.6L Diesel · GX64 AEN

The vehicle maintains an exemplary roadworthiness record, demonstrating a stable and consistent standard of upkeep. The most recent MOT conducted on 22 September 2025 at 119,897 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This outcome is consistent with the preceding four annual inspections, all of which were cleared without any flagged issues. Such a clean history suggests that the previous owner adhered to a proactive maintenance schedule, addressing mechanical requirements before they escalated into test failures. The recorded mileage of 119,897 over a twelve-year period averages approximately 9,991 miles per annum, which aligns with typical usage for a Skoda Octavia of this vintage. The progression of mileage between September 2021 and September 2025 shows a steady, predictable accumulation of roughly 11,000 to 13,000 miles per year. There are no significant gaps or periods of inactivity in the provided history, indicating that the car has remained in regular operation rather than sitting idle for extended durations, which often helps prevent issues related to seized components or degraded seals. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the condition of high-wear items that are not explicitly detailed in the clean MOT history. While the test records indicate the suspension, braking system, and structural integrity have met regulatory standards, a visual check of the brake discs for surface corrosion and the suspension bushes for perishing rubber remains essential. Given the mileage, verify the status of the timing belt replacement interval, as this is a critical maintenance item for this engine series that does not appear on MOT documentation. The absence of advisories over five years is a positive indicator of care, yet a thorough test drive is still required to confirm the drivetrain and clutch operate without hesitation or noise.
