2018 Skoda Octavia 1.4L Petrol · M29 WDE

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a stable and consistent maintenance history. The most recent MOT test conducted on 14 May 2025 at 64,503 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, maintaining a clean record across four consecutive annual inspections. This suggests that the previous owners have maintained the vehicle to a standard that prevents mechanical or structural failures from triggering MOT failures. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,000 miles per year. Between the April 2022 test at 41,227 miles and the May 2025 test at 64,503 miles, the car covered 23,276 miles. This steady usage pattern indicates regular motor use rather than long periods of stagnation, which often leads to perished seals or seized brake components. The intervals between tests are also within the expected window, showing the vehicle has been kept on a standard testing schedule. Since the MOT record shows no recurring advisories regarding suspension bushes, brake components, or corrosion, a physical inspection should focus on standard consumable wear that may have occurred between tests. A buyer should check the condition of the tyre treads and sidewalls, as well as the state of the brake pads and discs. Given the low mileage relative to the age, checking for any minor cracking in rubber components or the suspension system is prudent, though the historical data suggests the vehicle remains in good mechanical condition.
