Our Verdict

This 2015 Skoda Superb presents significant risks due to recent MOT failures and high mileage. A thorough mechanical inspection is essential before purchase.

Prioritise a full mechanical inspection of the rear suspension arms, ABS system, and electronic controls. Verify service history to confirm if corrosion issues were addressed. Negotiate a discount for the recent MOT failures and high mileage. Check for rust in the suspension components and ensure all warning lights have been resolved. Be cautious of potential hidden repair costs related to the electrical systems.

Diesel fuel economy for the 1.6L engine is moderate, with typical urban consumption around 40-45 mpg. Tax band depends on CO2 emissions (likely £140-£165 annually for pre-2017 models). Insurance group is likely mid-to-high due to the model's value. Maintenance costs are elevated by the recent suspension and electrical faults, with estimated annual running costs of £1,200-£1,500 including repairs.

Focus on the rear suspension arms for further corrosion or structural weakness, as both nearside and offside components showed issues in 2026. Test the ABS, electronic power steering, and stability control systems to confirm they function correctly. Inspect all tyres for uneven wear patterns and check the brake discs for scoring. Verify that the vehicle's service history includes repairs for the noted faults.

The vehicle has accumulated 176,853 miles (above average for its 11-year age) with multiple suspension corrosion issues and electrical faults recorded in its 2026 MOT. While it had a clean 2024 MOT, recurring suspension and tyre wear problems suggest potential long-term maintenance costs.

No aggregate data available for the SKODA SUPERB, but this vehicle's MOT history indicates potential susceptibility to suspension corrosion and electrical system issues.
