2023 Skoda Kamiq Monte Carlo TSI S-A 1.5L Petrol · CA72 LTZ

The vehicle remains currently roadworthy based on the most recent test on August 28, 2025. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car passed the inspection without any major failures. The single advisory noted regarding the offside front shock absorber showing a light misting of oil indicates the very beginning of a potential seal failure, but it does not present an immediate risk to safety at this stage. The vehicle has covered 39,970 miles in approximately three years, averaging roughly 13,300 miles per year. This usage pattern is significantly higher than the UK national average for a passenger car, which places accelerated demand on wear-related components and suspension systems. Because there is only one MOT record available from late 2025, there is limited historical data to track long-term maintenance habits, but the mileage suggests consistent motorway use rather than neglect. A physical inspection should focus on the front suspension assembly to monitor the noted offside shock absorber and determine if the misting has progressed to a significant leak that would require replacement. Given the high annual mileage, a buyer should also examine the condition of the brake discs and pads for premature wear or uneven thinning. Checking the tyre tread depth and sidewalls cracking is also advisable to ensure the high mileage has not been supported by neglected consumable maintenance.
