2007 Skoda Octavia 2.0L Diesel · AF57 TCJ

The Skoda Octavia presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 26 September 2025 at 130,383 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean results across the available history. Mileage progression shows light annual use for a 19-year-old vehicle. The record opened at 110,802 miles on 3 January 2022 and climbed to 130,383 miles by September 2025, an average of roughly 4,900 miles per year against a typical expectation near 6,862. A notable pause appears between the 3 January 2022 test at 110,802 miles and the 13 December 2022 test at 115,402 miles, then again the car sat at 119,927 miles on 18 January 2024 before reaching 120,003 miles by 9 October 2024, implying periods of limited running. The DVSA data itself is sparse, listing only passes with no advisories across all five entries. No tester flagged suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, binding calipers, corrosion, or exhaust emissions issues at any stage. The absence of advisories suggests previous owners kept basic consumable wear under control, though a clean MOT sheet does not confirm underlying condition. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity and underbody rust, given the vehicle's age and the limitations of the MOT regime. Verify real-world brake performance, suspension articulation, and tyre sidewall condition in person, since the records offer no evidence of neglect but equally no detail on components not yet failed.
