2018 Skoda Kodiaq 2.0L Diesel · BW67 PFJ

The Skoda Kodiaq presents a stable mechanical trend, culminating in a pass at its most recent MOT on 4 August 2025 at 71,051 miles. The record shows a peculiar anomaly where a failure and a pass are logged on the exact same date and mileage, both noting no defects. This typically indicates a data entry error or an aborted test followed by a successful retest, rather than a genuine mechanical failure. Regardless, the vehicle met the required standards on that date. With the current date being 8 July 2026, the MOT certificate is nearly a year old and expires imminently, meaning a fresh test is due to verify its current roadworthiness. The mileage accumulation reveals a notable shift in usage patterns over the vehicle's lifespan. Between the September 2023 test at 48,862 miles and the August 2024 test at 59,907 miles, the Kodiaq covered 11,045 miles. This increased to 11,144 miles over the following twelve months leading to the August 2025 test at 71,051 miles. While the overall average suggests 8,881 miles per year, the recent two years demonstrate a higher annual mileage of roughly 11,000 miles, indicating a transition from lighter use to more consistent, demanding driving. There are no significant gaps in the testing record, confirming continuous annual use. Because the MOT history is entirely clean of advisories or recurring mechanical faults, the record implies a vehicle that has required minimal consumable replacements or structural repairs. However, the absence of recorded defects does not guarantee the current condition, especially given the imminent expiry of the certificate. A buyer should inspect the typical wear items associated with a family SUV approaching 71,000 miles. Check the condition of the brake discs and pads for uneven wear, and inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for deterioration. Examine the exhaust system for corrosion and verify the structural integrity of the underbody, paying close attention to the sills and suspension mounting points. Tyre tread depth and condition should also be scrutinized, as higher recent mileage accelerates wear on these consumables.
