2011 Skoda Octavia 1.6L Diesel · AF61 YCD

The Skoda Octavia presents a current roadworthy status based on the most recent pass recorded on 4 September 2023 at 162,774 miles, with no defects listed. The maintenance trend appears stable across the available history, as the vehicle passed without advisories in 2022 and 2023 and shows no escalating mechanical concerns. The duplicated failed entries on the same dates in 2021 and 2023, both at identical mileages and with no defects recorded, suggest administrative re-tests rather than genuine faults, leaving the underlying condition unremarkable. Mileage accumulation is consistent with typical use for a 2011 vehicle, rising from 144,446 miles at the 24 August 2021 test to 154,358 miles by 31 August 2022, then 162,774 miles by 4 September 2023. That equates to roughly 8,900 to 9,900 miles per year across those intervals, marginally below the 10,852 annual average implied by the total. The record shows no prolonged standing or sudden accumulation spikes, though the sparse five-entry history offers limited visibility of care between 2021 and 2023. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the age and 162,774-mile distance travelled. The clean MOT sheets do not rule out latent corrosion on structural members or worn consumables such as tyres and wiper blades that testers may not have flagged under current limits. The absence of recorded advisories across three passes implies previous owners addressed issues pre-test or the car avoided marginal failures, but the twin fail logs on 24 August 2021 and 4 September 2023 warrant confirmation the faults were clerical. Verify the V5C and service book against the odometer to validate the mileage chain before purchase.
