2015 Skoda Citigo SE MPI 1.0L Petrol · BF65 VLW

The vehicle is currently in excellent mechanical condition, with a consistent and stable maintenance history. The most recent MOT on 21 January 2026 at 53,809 miles recorded a clean pass with no defects, confirming that the car remains fully roadworthy and well-maintained. This follows four consecutive annual passes without any issues, indicating a reliable and predictable service pattern over the past five years. The mileage accumulation shows a steady average of approximately 4,892 miles per year, which is low for an 11-year-old vehicle. This suggests either light usage or extended periods of inactivity, particularly evident between 2022 and 2023 when the vehicle gained just 5,100 miles over 12 months. The jump from 34,528 miles in January 2022 to 39,627 miles by January 2023 reflects a more active period, but even then, the increase was modest. The subsequent progression to 45,441 miles (2024), 49,956 miles (2025), and finally 53,809 miles (2026) confirms a gradual and controlled use profile, reducing wear on critical components such as brakes, suspension, and drivetrain. Despite the clean MOT record, a buyer should conduct a thorough in-person inspection of the suspension system, particularly the rear coil springs and bushes, as these are common failure points in older Citigos. The steering rack and front suspension joints should also be checked for play or wear, especially given the low mileage which may mask hidden fatigue from infrequent use. Additionally, the brake discs and calipers should be examined for corrosion or binding, as prolonged storage can lead to surface rust and seized components. The exhaust system and underbody should be inspected for signs of structural rust, particularly around the wheel arches and floor pans, as moisture retention in low-mileage vehicles can accelerate deterioration.
