2013 Skoda Octavia 2.0L Diesel · AF63 WAJ

The Skoda Octavia presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 3 October 2025 at 124,885 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the prior clean pass dated 7 October 2024 at 117,130 miles confirms the vehicle has cleared two consecutive annual examinations without advisories. The upkeep pattern is steady rather than deteriorating. Mileage sits at a typical level for a 2013 vehicle, averaging roughly 9,600 miles per year across its life. The records show 108,858 miles at the 11 September 2023 test, rising to 101,588 by 20 September 2022, then 117,130 by October 2024 and 124,885 by October 2025. Annual accumulation stays consistent with no sudden jumps or unexplained gaps. The only anomaly is a failed test on 4 October 2024 at 117,129 miles, reversed three days later at 117,130 miles with no defects logged, which suggests an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and calipers given the car is now 13 years old and past 124,000 miles. The MOT history raises no corrosion, exhaust emission, or structural integrity concerns, yet the absence of advisories across five years means wear on consumables such as tyres and wiper blades has simply not been captured by the tester. Given the clean record and ordinary mileage, previous owners appear to have kept the Octavia to a basic pass standard without neglected items surfacing. Verify service history and check for underlying structural rust in sills and subframes, as the MOT data alone cannot confirm hidden deterioration on a high-mileage family hatchback.
