2011 Skoda Octavia 1.6L Petrol · PY11 ABZ

The most recent MOT on 28 November 2025 recorded a pass at 115,017 miles with no defects noted, indicating that the vehicle presently meets the statutory roadworthiness criteria. The preceding failure on 26 November 2025 also listed no faults, suggesting an administrative rather than mechanical cause. Earlier in the 2024 series, a pass and two failures on consecutive days similarly reported no defects. Across the three‑year span the pattern shows no emerging mechanical issues, pointing to a stable maintenance record. At 115,017 miles the 2011 Octavia averages roughly 7,600 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage for its age. Between the October 2024 test (104,706 miles) and the November 2025 test the mileage rose by 10,311 miles, equating to about 950 miles per month – a modest increase but not indicative of excessive wear. No large mileage gaps appear in the record, and the data set is otherwise clean, reinforcing the impression of consistent, moderate use. A prospective buyer should still examine the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs for any signs of wear that may not have been captured in the MOT entries. Verifying tyre tread depth, checking for corrosion around wheel arches and undercarriage, and confirming the operation of the exhaust and emission control systems will provide assurance that the vehicle’s mechanical health matches the clean MOT history. A brief test drive focusing on steering feel and braking response will help confirm that no hidden faults have been overlooked.
