2009 Skoda Octavia 1.9L Diesel · AF59 YNZ

The Skoda Octavia passed its most recent MOT on 13 January 2022 at 137,691 miles with no defects recorded, leaving the maintenance trend neither improving nor worsening but simply static due to the absence of any later test data. Given today's date of 8 July 2026, the vehicle has stood without a recorded test for over four years, so its current roadworthiness cannot be confirmed from the official record and must be treated as unknown until a fresh examination occurs. The odometer reading of 137,691 miles against a January 2022 test equates to an average of roughly 8,100 miles per year across the car's seventeen years, which sits within normal parameters for a 2009 hatchback. The single entry provides no evidence of rapid accumulation or extended dormancy prior to that date, though the four-and-a-half-year silence since then suggests either prolonged storage or lapsed licensing, both of which carry risk for perished rubber components and flat-spotted tyres. A buyer should commission an independent inspection before any purchase. With no advisories logged at the last test, the suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and exhaust emissions showed no flagged concern in early 2022, but the age of the vehicle now invites scrutiny of structural corrosion around sills and subframes and of binding calipers from standing. The clean history offers no recurring fault pattern to track. Treat the 2022 pass as a snapshot of a car that was sound then, not a guarantee now, and verify the actual mileage and mechanical condition on the day.
