2017 Skoda Kodiaq 1.4L Petrol · HK67 ABU

This Skoda Kodiaq has maintained a clean MOT record over the past four annual tests, with the most recent inspection on 18 July 2025 at 63,787 miles showing no defects or advisories. The consistent pass rate, including the absence of even minor faults in the latest test, suggests the vehicle has been well maintained under routine servicing—at least in terms of compliance with basic roadworthiness standards. There is no evidence of recurring issues that would indicate neglect or progressive mechanical degradation. The lack of advisories also implies that components such as suspension bushes, brake discs, and exhaust systems have not deteriorated beyond acceptable thresholds during this period. The mileage accumulation of approximately 7,087 miles per year aligns closely with the average for a vehicle of this age, suggesting moderate but steady use rather than either extreme underuse or heavy workload. The recorded mileage increments—from 45,457 miles in July 2022 to 63,787 miles in July 2025—are consistent and incremental, with no sudden jumps that might imply odometer tampering or inconsistent logging. This steady progression supports the reliability of the mileage figures and reinforces the impression of responsible ownership, at least in terms of mileage tracking and overall usage patterns. Given the absence of any historical defects or advisories, a prospective buyer should still conduct a thorough pre-purchase inspection, focusing on areas not covered by the MOT—particularly the suspension components, including coil springs and anti-roll bars, which may show early signs of wear even if not yet critical. The brakes, including caliper condition and disc thickness, should be checked for uneven wear or corrosion, especially if the vehicle has been parked in damp or salty conditions. Structural integrity, particularly around wheel arches and underbody panels, should be scrutinised for signs of corrosion or impact damage, as these are not always visible during an MOT test. Finally, while the MOT record is flawless, a closer look at fluid levels, tyre condition beyond legal limits, and any signs of leaks or unusual play in the steering or drivetrain would be prudent, as these are not part of the standard MOT check.
