2022 Skoda Kodiaq Sportline TSI S-A 1.5L Petrol · BG72 ABU

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, though the most recent inspection indicates the beginning of consumable wear requirements. The MOT test performed on 10 July 2026 at 30,356 miles passed with an advisory for rear brake pads wearing thin. This represents a shift from the clean record seen in the previous year, suggesting that the braking system is now reaching the end of its service interval and requires proactive attention to prevent a future failure. The mileage profile is consistent with low-intensity usage, averaging approximately 7,600 miles per annum over its four-year life. Between the August 2025 test at 27,511 miles and the July 2026 test, the vehicle covered 2,845 miles. This steady but modest accumulation suggests the car has not been subjected to high-stress environments, which generally preserves the suspension components and drivetrain integrity compared to high-mileage counterparts. A buyer should prioritise a physical inspection of the braking system to ensure the rear pads are replaced before the point of damaging the rotors. Since the tester flagged the thin pads recently, it is essential to check the condition of the discs for scoring or uneven wear which would indicate sticking calipers. Given the low mileage, a thorough check of the tyre rubber age and suspension bushings is also advisable, as less-used vehicles can suffer from perish or cracking rather than mechanical wear.
