2019 Skoda Karoq 1.6L Diesel · JOC 3W

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate following a clean pass on 8 December 2025 at 34,785 miles. This record indicates a stable and high level of mechanical compliance, as the car has cleared every annual inspection without a single advisory or failure for major components. The discrepancy on the same day in December 2025, where the vehicle failed at 34,782 miles before passing three miles later, suggests a minor administrative error or a transient sensor fault that was immediately rectified, rather than a systemic mechanical failure. With a total of 34,785 miles covered over seven years, the vehicle averages approximately 4,969 miles annually. This low-mileage profile suggests the car has likely been used for short, intermittent journeys rather than sustained motorway driving. While the MOT history is exceptionally clean, low-usage vehicles can sometimes suffer from seized brake calipers or surface corrosion on underbody components due to infrequent operation. The consistent testing pattern confirms that the car has remained in regular use, which helps mitigate the risks typically associated with long-term storage. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the condition of the brake discs and pads, as low-mileage cars often exhibit surface oxidation or uneven wear if the brakes have not been worked hard enough to keep them clean. Check the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of perishing or light corrosion, as these rubber and metal components can degrade with age regardless of the low mileage. Given the lack of any historical advisories, the vehicle appears to have been maintained to a high standard, though a thorough check of the service history is recommended to ensure that engine oil and filter changes have kept pace with the calendar years despite the low distance covered.
