2011 SKODA OCTAVIA1.6L Petrol

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT pass from December 2025 at 131,665 miles, with no defects recorded. This marks a continuation of clean results following the previous December 2024 test, suggesting the maintenance trend has stabilised after a period of recurring advisories. Mileage accumulation averages approximately 8,778 miles per year over the vehicle's 15-year life, which is typical for its age. The records show consistent annual testing with no significant gaps, and the most recent two passes are defect-free, indicating regular upkeep in recent years. Buyers should inspect the front suspension bushes and arms in person, as wear and corrosion have been noted repeatedly since 2018, including perished lower console bushes and slight corrosion on rear lower arms in 2024. The braking system warrants attention, given past failures for binding rear brakes in 2018 and 2019, along with thin pads and binding calipers. Check the rear tyres for uneven wear patterns, as previous failures cited exposed ply and tread depths below the legal limit. Finally, verify all direction indicators function correctly, as discoloured and non-functioning bulbs have appeared consistently across multiple tests since 2019.
