2011 Skoda Octavia 1.6L Petrol · PY11 ABK

The vehicle last passed its MOT on 25 April 2026 at 93,310 miles with no defects recorded. That clean pass, roughly three months before today, confirms it holds a valid roadworthiness certificate and shows no immediate mechanical failure points. The maintenance trend is stable and slowly improving: one light advisory on a front shock absorber in 2025, brake pad wear in 2024, and tyre wear in 2022 have all been resolved by the last test. Mileage accumulation is steady, with about 4,970 to 5,044 miles covered between each annual test. The car averaged roughly 6,221 miles per year across 15 years, which is typical for a family hatchback. No large gaps or sudden spikes appear in the record; the vehicle was driven consistently every year, indicating regular use rather than long periods standing. A buyer should inspect cabin and boot for damp, because the history does not flag structural corrosion but a 2011 Octavia of this age can suffer from rear boot seal leaks and water ingress under the spare wheel. The shock absorber misting noted in 2025 did not fail the last test, so check for oil weeping on the offside front strut, and take the car over speed bumps to listen for suspension knocks. Rear brake disc condition and front suspension bushes should be looked at in person, since consumable wear has appeared twice in the history, and tyres must be checked for even tread wear given the 2022 advisory.
