2016 SKODA YETI2.0L Diesel

The Skoda Yeti presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 9 June 2025 at 51,799 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken run of clean results since the single failure in May 2022. The mileage pattern shows light use for a 2016 vehicle. From the 26,322 miles recorded at the failed test on 28 May 2022, the car covered just 25,477 miles over the following three years to June 2025, averaging under 8,500 miles annually. The DVSA record is sparse, with only five entries across the period, but every pass from June 2022 onward shows zero advisories on tyres, brakes, suspension bushes, or corrosion, suggesting the previous keeper kept basic upkeep current rather than deferring consumable replacement. The lone failure on 28 May 2022 at 26,322 miles listed no defects, indicating an administrative or presentation issue rather than a mechanical fault, and the vehicle passed three days later at 26,323 miles. No recurring problems appear across the history, so there is no evidence of worsening suspension wear, binding calipers, or structural rust. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection given the low mileage and likely periods of standing. Check for perished rubber components, flat-spotted tyres, and surface corrosion on brake discs or underbody mounts that a static MOT may not capture. The clean record implies careful ownership, but low-use vehicles can hide degraded fluids and seized handbrake mechanisms that short test drives will expose.
